He added that he had constituted a team to formulate and prepare the course programme for teaching ayurveda in the MBBS course. Vij further said that the ultimate aim of medical science was to provide relief and cure to the patient. “Thus both ayurveda and allopathy should be integrated and used when required. The government intend is to promote traditional medicines and add them to the daily lives of the people” he said.
