Medical Dialogues team had earlier reported that 'Integrative medicine is aimed at harnessing the potential of India's rich heritage and medical knowledge, along with using modern advancements in allopathy. Both traditional and modern medical practices would help in providing better avenues of health and wellness. It is thus, the need of the hour that different medical systems must not compete but complement each other. Only then we can ensure the well-being of our citizens and further help in achieving health for all.” This was stated by Union Minister of Health & Family Welfare and Chemicals & Fertilizers, Dr Mansukh Mandaviya as he jointly inaugurated the Integrative Medicine Centre at the Department of Integrative medicine of All India Institute of Ayurveda (AIIA) at Safdarjung hospital, with Shri Sarbananda Sonowal, Union Minister of Ayush.
