A known proverb says `Health is Wealth` which is true because a Healthy Mind and Body can only achieve ultimate goal of life. Today when there are numerous diseases like COVID 19etc are coming up there is need to go back to our forgotten roots which is AYUSH.

AYUSH can be the best way to reduce the burden of diseases from country and world by its simple basic preventive lifestyle regimens to be followed by everyone in the World. That can be only through Health Promotion by AYUSH Practitioners to the base level of primary health care.
