New Delhi: Litigation of Public Interest (PIL) has been submitted at the Supreme Court of India looking for direction to the Ayush Ministry to focus on all the same traditional health systems, because streams such as naturopathy and acupressure, etc.
are defeated by the excessive commercialization of Ayurveda.
The lawyer-cum-petitioner, Shailendra Mani Tripathi, recently submitted a petition before the Supreme Court and looked for the right direction in the case of naturopathy and acupressure.
Tripathi in litigation of public interest (pill) looks for the direction of the Supreme Court to the Union of India (UOI) to establish parameters for products to qualify to be labeled as Ayurvedic, because all types of chemicals are being sold on behalf of Ayurvedic.
or herbal products.
Tripathi, in his petition, a copy accessed by Ani, strives to increase the budget for ayush and to build separate meditation branches and Shathkarma and research institutions under Ayush.
Tripathi is also looking for that UOI, UTS, and all countries must disseminate adequate information about ‘Neti’ and ‘dietary healing science’ Ayurveda to ordinary people.
Tripathi in his request was submitted before the Supreme Court also looked for directions to UOI to build ayush TV channels and social media platforms to adopt and promote naturopathy, yoga, and meditation between the masses.
“The ancient health system and medical science available in India have the potential to fight pandemic such as Covid-19.
This health practice can be very useful and play a role in the war against the third wave of Covid-19.
Immunity can increase by practicing by practicing yoga, naturopathy, meditation , Shatharma, etc.
Which in turn can protect the body from the negative effects of any virus and bacteria, “Tripathi said in his application.
Ayurveda is not a single dimensional medical system but a holistic approach to a healthy body and a balanced mind.
Ayurveda said translated as ‘ayur’ (life) and ‘Veda’ (science or knowledge) which is a life science.
In previous times, Ayurveda was tested in the lifestyle of ordinary people but unfortunately, this knowledge almost disappeared from the daily lives of ordinary people in India, said the petition.
We have begun to consider medicine and operation as the only form of care, while this is chosen as the last choice in Indian medical traditions.
In the ancient Indian medical system, there are many ways to live a healthy life, such as yoga, DHYAN, Naturopathy, Panchkarma, Shadkarma, Acupressure, Acupuncture, etc., said further petitions.
This type of system is very effective, tested for thousands of years, and can be accessed by people of all strata of society.
After gaining basic knowledge, anyone can practice this at home and get a healthy body and mind.
The ongoing pandemic has proven that our immune system is too fragile to fight pathogens even in the younger generation, the petition said.
Ayurveda can be a solution to overcome this problem because it emphasizes increasing immunity and reduces body vulnerability to diseases by increasing resilience and strength, petition words.
Every physical illness affects mental health to a certain extent, depending on the severity of the disease.
The modern medical system does not take into account this, he deals with mental health separately, the petition said.
It only focuses on physical aspects when dealing with physical illness, while our traditional systems such as Ayurveda take an integrated approach that includes a healthy body and a healthy mind.
Because it is very important to spread the health system mentioned to the masses.
At present, the Ayush budget allocation is very inadequate.
There is an urgent need to focus on ayush and make it more feasible, said the petition.
