Ayurveda Should be Included in Mainstream Medical Care: HP Governor

Himachal Pradesh Governor Acharya Devvrat said keeping in view the increasing burden of existing and emerging diseases, and gaps in modern medicines, there was a dire need to include indigenous systems in mainstream medical care.
"Ayurveda has identified congenital factors and is science of life. The role of this medicine in management of the disease had been limited to the minimum," he said at the closing ceremony of the three-day State level Arogya Fair here.
The fair was jointly organised by the State Ayurveda department, Ministry of AYSUH and CII.
"It correctly identifies the importance of diet and physical activity in daily lifestyle,"Devvrat said, adding the state has a rich treasure of medicinal herbs and plants which are being used to prepare Ayurvedic medicines.
Stressing more research in Ayurveda, he said more laboratories should be set up in the state.
