Highlighting the importance of the Unani system of treatment, he said the government was trying to strengthen this system along with Ayurveda and Homoeopathy for providing better health services to the people.

Speaking about the indigenous system of treatments, Kumar said that Unani played an important role as it not only treats the disease but also focuses on a person's body, mind and soul. It keeps a person healthy through lifestyle, diet, naturopathy and Hakimi medicines.
