I,  Lei  Liu,  certify  that:

1.   I have  reviewed  this  Quarterly  Report  on  Form  10-Q  of  China  Jo-Jo
     Drugstores,  Inc.;

2.   Based on my knowledge, this report does not contain any untrue statement of
     a  material  fact  or  omit  to state a material fact necessary to make the
     statements  made, in light of the circumstances under which such statements
     were  made,  not  misleading  with  respect  to  the period covered by this
     report;

3.   Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial
     information  included  in  this  report,  fairly  present  in  all material
     respects  the  financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of
     the  registrant  as  of,  and  for,  the  periods presented in this report;

4.   The  registrant's  other  certifying  officer(s)  and  I  are responsible
     for  establishing  and  maintaining  disclosure controls and procedures (as
     defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) and internal control
     over  financial  reporting  (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and
     15d-15(f))  for  the  registrant  and  have:

     a.   Designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such
          disclosure  controls  and  procedures  to  be  designed  under  our
          supervision,  to  ensure  that  material  information  relating to the
          registrant,  including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to
          us  by others within those entities, particularly during the period in
          which  this  report  is  being  prepared;

     b.   Designed  such internal control over financial reporting, or caused
          such  internal  control  over financial reporting to be designed under
          our  supervision,  to  provide  reasonable  assurance  regarding  the
          reliability  of  financial  reporting and the preparation of financial
          statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted
          accounting  principals;

     c.   Evaluated  the effectiveness of the registrant's disclosure controls
          and  procedures and presented in this report our conclusions about the
          effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end
          of  the  period  covered  by this report based on such evaluation; and

     d.   Disclosed in this report any change in the registrant's internal
          control over financial reporting that occurred during the registrant's
          most  recent fiscal quarter (the registrant's fourth fiscal quarter in
          the  case  of  an  annual  report) that has materially affected, or is
          reasonably  likely  to  materially  affect,  the registrant's internal
          control  over  financial  reporting;  and

5.   The  registrant's  other certifying officer(s) and I have disclosed, based
     on  our most recent evaluation of internal control over financial reporting
     to  the  registrant's  auditors and the audit committee of the registrant's
     board  of  directors  (or  persons  performing  the  equivalent functions):

     a.   All  significant  deficiencies  and material weaknesses in the design
          or  operation  of internal controls over financial reporting which are
          reasonably  likely  to  adversely  affect  the registrant's ability to
          record,  process,  summarize  and  report  financial  information; and

     b.   Any  fraud,  whether  or not material, that involves management or
          other  employees  who  have  a  significant  role  in the registrant's
          internal  control  over  financial  reporting.
