In order to promote integration of modern medicine with homeopathy and Indian systems of medicines including Ayurveda, the National Medical Commission (NMC) has made it mandatory for all the medical colleges to have a "Department of Integrative Medicine Research".
The decision in this regard was taken at the first joint meeting of NMC with the functionaries of the National Commission for Homoeopathy (NCH) and the National Commission for Indian Systems of Medicine (NCISM).
