He asked students to enhance their knowledge and develop skills in this area. "To provide a global position to homeopathic medicines, the students must take on research studies and gain expertise.

As a doctor, you will be looked up with respect, never let it down," he said. "Homeopathy is a science which consists all the components of nature.
