Demand for Ayurvedic products went up globally during Covid-19’: PM Modi


“On the occasion of Ayurveda Day, Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated two ayurveda institutes – Institute of Teaching and Research in Ayurveda (ITRA), Jamnagar, and the National Institute of Ayurveda (NIA), Jaipur via video conferencing on Friday.

“Everything is being integrated in today’s era and this approach has made Ayurveda play an important role in the medical world. Allopathic and Ayurvedic practices will now go hand in hand. For the first time, the science of our ancient India is being integrated with the science of the 21st century,” PM Modi said.

“Now that you all are a part of the nation’s topmost Ayurvedic centre, your responsibility has increased. You have to come up with a syllabus that is of the international level,” PM Modi said after inaugurating the two institutes.

The demand for immunity boosters from India such as turmeric and Ayurvedic products has grown globally, the PM said. “Despite our nation being very populous, the Covid-19 situation is under control because every household is consuming immunity boosters like turmeric milk, the ashwagandha herb, kaadha etc. The demand for these products has increased during the pandemic,” he said.

Chief minister of Rajasthan Ashok Gehlot and Gujarat CM Vijay Rupani were also present at the event.

While ITRA has been conferred the status of an Institution of National Importance (INI) by an Act of Parliament, NIA has been deemed to be a university by the University Grants Commission (UGC).

Earlier in the day, the PM had wished the nation on the occasion of Ayurveda Day. “Greetings on Ayurveda Day. On this special day, will be inaugurating two Ayurveda institutes, located in Rajasthan and Gujarat. The programme begins at 10:30 AM. Do watch!” he tweeted.

The Ministry of Ayush (ayurveda, yoga and naturopathy, unani, sidda and homoeopathy) has been observing Ayurveda Day since 2016 on the occasion of Dhanwantari Jayanti (Dhanteras).

In Brazil, Ambassador H.E. Suresh Reddy addressed the Ayurveda Day Webinar organised in association with Ministry of AYUSH and Suddha Yoga & Ayurveda. The event saw launch of Associação Nacional dos Profissionais de Ayurveda APA-Brasil.”

‘A demanda por produtos ayurvédicos aumentou globalmente durante a Covid-19’: PM Modi


“Por ocasião do Dia do Ayurveda, o primeiro-ministro Narendra Modi inaugurou dois institutos ayurveda – Instituto de Ensino e Pesquisa em Ayurveda (ITRA), Jamnagar, e o Instituto Nacional de Ayurveda (NIA), Jaipur via videoconferência na sexta-feira.

“Tudo está sendo integrado na era de hoje e essa abordagem fez com que o Ayurveda desempenhasse um papel importante no mundo médico. As práticas alopáticas e ayurvédicas agora vão andar de mãos dadas. Pela primeira vez, a ciência da nossa antiga Índia está sendo integrada à ciência do século 21”, disse PM Modi.

“Agora que todos vocês fazem parte do centro ayurvédico mais importante do país, sua responsabilidade aumentou. É preciso criar um currículo que seja de nível internacional ”, disse PM Modi após a inauguração dos dois institutos.

A demanda por reforços da imunidade da Índia, como açafrão e produtos ayurvédicos, cresceu globalmente, disse o PM. “Apesar de nossa nação ser muito populosa, a situação da Covid-19 está sob controle porque todas as famílias estão consumindo estimulantes da imunidade, como leite de açafrão, erva ashwagandha, kaadha etc. A demanda por esses produtos aumentou durante a pandemia”, disse ele.

O ministro-chefe do Rajastão Ashok Gehlot e Gujarat CM Vijay Rupani também estiveram presentes no evento.

Embora a ITRA tenha recebido o status de Instituição de Importância Nacional (INI) por uma Lei do Parlamento, a NIA foi considerada uma universidade pela University Grants Commission (UGC).

No início do dia, o PM havia feito votos à nação por ocasião do Dia do Ayurveda. “Saudações no Dia Ayurveda. Neste dia especial, serão inaugurados dois institutos Ayurveda, localizados em Rajasthan e Gujarat. O programa começa às 10h30. Observe! ” ele twittou.

O Ministério da Ayush (ayurveda, ioga e naturopatia, unani, sidda e homeopatia) tem observado o Dia do Ayurveda desde 2016 por ocasião do Dhanwantari Jayanti (Dhanteras).
