Become Ayush brand ambassadors in world: Guv to varsity pass-outs
Haryana Governor Bandaru Dattatreya today called upon the graduating students of Shri Krishna AYUSH University to become the brand ambassadors of AYUSH in the world.
The Governor, while addressing the first convocation of the university, said, “I want you to become the brand ambassadors of AYUSH in the world, and also keep doing research in the field of medicinal plants.”
He said, “The doctors who received degrees will now spread India’s ancient ayurvedic system to the whole world. This ancient ayurvedic system is in demand in the health sector all over the world today. Not only this, there are immense possibilities in the field of ayurveda in the coming future.”
Earlier, the Governor inaugurated the auditorium hall of the university, built at a cost of Rs 9.5 crore.
The Governor was accompanied by Secretary of the Ministry of AYUSH Rajesh Kotecha, ‘vaidya’ Devendra Triguna and Vice-Chancellor of Shri Krishna Ayush University Prof Kartar Singh Dhiman.
In the convocation, 126 students were awarded degrees. As many as 26 degree holders bagged gold medals.
An honorary Doctor of Literature degree was conferred upon ‘vaidya’ Devendra Triguna. The Governor also released the souvenir of the first convocation of the university.
Governor Dattatreya said that ayurveda has an important place in medical systems. In ancient times, treatment was done by this system, but later, the prevalence of ayurveda decreased. Earlier, it was not given attention, but since the formation of the government under the leadership of Narendra Modi at the Centre, this ancient system of medicine has started getting importance.
He said, “The country’s first Shri Krishna AYUSH University was established in Kurukshetra for the uplift of the ancient medical system. The university has acquired about 100 acres, which is an important step for its future development. The construction of modern buildings, teaching facilities and research centres will soon begin on this land.”
“This university is doing commendable work in the field of education, research, innovation and social service. The model adopted by the university to teach traditional medicine with a scientific approach is exemplary. The research work done here has established new dimensions in the field of ayurveda, yoga and homoeopathy. The research work done on the effectiveness of ayurvedic medicines has received praise at national and international levels,” the Governor said.
