our everyday practice. This strategic collaboration aims to advance
Integrative Health Research, integrate traditional Ayush practices with modern
medical science and take India to the forefront of holistic healthcare

as to take the best practices from both the disciplines, Ayurveda and
Allopathy, the Union Health Minister said that “the Union Government is working
towards providing quality-oriented healthcare in response to increasing needs
of the people of the country. In this direction, Indian Public Health Standards
(IPHS) for Ayush Healthcare facilities were published by the Union Health
Ministry as a set of uniform standards to improve the quality of health care
delivery. By adopting these reforms, it is expected that the States/UTs will be
able to develop Ayush healthcare services with set standards and quality
infrastructure, thereby enabling the public to avail the benefits of Ayush
medical services for all healthcare.
Secretary, Minister of Ayush, Vaidya Rajesh Kotecha, said in his speech
that since its inception in 2014, Ministry of Ayush has embarked on a journey
of resilience, innovation, and holistic healthcare, revolutionizing the Ayush
sector. Under the visionary leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi Ji,
significant strides have been made in integrating evidence-based Ayush systems
into public healthcare, driving research, and fostering innovation. Today, we

achievements, which serves as a testament to the Ministry's commitment to
holistic healthcare and its vision for a healthier, more vibrant India.
