Prime Minister Narendra Modi has time and again underlined the importance of traditional medicine in building a healthier society.

He has said, “Ayush is not merely a system of medicine, it is a holistic approach to life. By integrating Ayurveda and other traditional practices with modern healthcare, we can ensure wellness for every section of society, especially our children, who are the future of the nation.”

Union Ayush Minister Prataprao Ganpatrao Jadhav has always extended strong support for initiatives that promote holistic child healthcare through Ayurveda.

He has said, “Ayurveda has always emphasised nurturing the health of children as the foundation of a healthy society. The upcoming National Seminar of RAV on paediatric care is a timely initiative to highlight Ayurveda’s holistic approach towards both illness management and wellness promotion in children. I am confident that the deliberations tomorrow and the day after will enrich practitioners, researchers, and students, and contribute to advancing paediatric healthcare through Ayurveda.”

Vaidya Rajesh Kotecha, Secretary, Ministry of Ayush, Padma Shri awardee, has consistently encouraged RAV’s efforts to create platforms for academic exchange and professional development.

He remarked, “The 30th National Seminar of Rashtriya Ayurveda Vidyapeeth is a valuable opportunity to bring together the Ayurveda fraternity on one platform. As we look forward to the seminar beginning tomorrow, I am hopeful that the discussions will inspire new perspectives, strengthen evidence-based practices, and encourage greater collaboration in the field of paediatric Ayurveda. Such initiatives help bridge classical wisdom and modern healthcare needs.”

Vaidya Devinder Triguna, Padma Shri & Padma Bhushan awardee and President, Governing Body, RAV, will also join the deliberations.
