  • This step shall witness an integrated approach to healthcare, where the focus shifts from treatment to well being and prevention of diseases.
  • The Centre will provide a potent platform for integrating the contemporary allopathy with the benefits of traditional knowledge in healthcare such a Yoga and Ayurveda.
