Efforts to standardize diagnosis and terminologies of Ayurveda, Siddha and Unani (A-S-U) systems of Medicine started in 1946 with the Bhore Committee recommending up-gradation of "Indian Systems" of Medicine by Standardization and rationalization. The subsequent developments viz., setting up of Research Council (1969), Passing of Indian Medicine Central Council Act (IMCC) (1970), introduction of uniform curriculum (1976), creation of Department of AYUSH (1995) and subsequent up gradation of the same to a dedicated Ministry (2014) added momentum to this effort at different stages.
This second module will focus on developing a union set of harmonized traditional medicine conditions of Ayurveda, Unani, and Siddha systems of medicines. In many ways, this agreement marks the rededication of these three live and invaluable healthcare traditions to the entire humanity.
