The company said some sellers took down the products after they were served legal notices but recently it spotted a seller selling Rooh Afza bottles manufactured in Pakistan, as per Samaa.Īs per Indian Express, one of the manufacturers whose product was being sold on Amazon was Hamdard Laboratory (Waqf), Pakistan. The Delhi High Court passed the order on a petition by Hamdard National Foundation and Hamdard Laboratories India which stated that various brands were illegally selling Rooh Afza on Amazon. Thus Hamdard National Foundation manufactures Rooh Afza in India while Hamdard Laboratories (Waqf) has the rights over the drink in Pakistan. They set up factories in each country - as well as one in East Pakistan, which became Bangladesh in 1971 - under two firms, Hamdard India and Hamdard Pakistan. In 1947, with the partition of British India, one son stayed in Delhi while the other upped sticks for the new Pakistan. Rooh Afza was first sold in 1907 in Old Delhi, the congested heart of the Indian capital, by Hakim Hafiz Abdul Majeed, a traditional healing practitioner. In North India, the drink has long been popular during summer while in Pakistan, the drink is a particular favourite in the holy month of Ramazan, when it is served as an evening thirst-quencher with the Iftar feast, when Muslims break their fast. It has not only survived the 1947 partition of the two countries but thrived on both sides of the border.
