/ Health & Wellness Community

President Droupadi Murmu on Wednesday inaugurated the National Arogya Fair 2026 at Shegaon in Maharashtra’s Buldhana district, emphasising the vital role of AYUSH systems in promoting holistic healthcare. During the event, the President felicitated six senior Vaidyas in recognition of their outstanding contributions to the field of traditional Indian medicine. Addressing the gathering, President Murmu highlighted that in Indian philosophy, good health is considered the highest form of happiness, and healthy citizens are fundamental to nation-building. She noted that AYUSH systems — including Ayurveda, Yoga and Siddha — have long supported public health and continue to complement modern medicine. The President underlined India’s rich natural heritage, pointing out that farms, kitchens and forests are abundant sources of medicinal plants and healing herbs. She stressed the importance of conserving and enhancing this biodiversity to ensure sustainable raw materials for medicines while maintaining ecological balance. Cultivation of medicinal plants, she added, boosts farmers’ incomes and supports soil conservation. She further stated that strengthening AYUSH not only promotes physical well-being but also drives economic growth and environmental sustainability. Systems such as Ayurveda and Yoga, she said, offer comprehensive guidance for leading a balanced and healthy lifestyle. Observing growing global interest, President Murmu remarked that integrative medicine is gaining recognition worldwide, with increasing adoption of yoga for stress management and Ayurveda for preventive and therapeutic care. She emphasised the need for evidence-based research, standardisation of medicines, and robust quality control measures to enhance the global credibility and acceptance of AYUSH systems. Expressing satisfaction over ongoing efforts, the President said the Ministry of AYUSH has aligned research and drug development guidelines with international standards. With continued scientific validation and global collaboration, she expressed confidence that traditional Indian medicine will play a pivotal role in advancing holistic healthcare globally.

President Murmu to Inaugurate Uttar Pradesh’s First AYUSH University During Two-Day Visit to Gorakhpur

/ Governance Community

President Droupadi Murmu begins a two-day official visit to Uttar Pradesh today, with a packed itinerary that includes the inauguration of the state’s first AYUSH University and the first convocation ceremony of AIIMS Gorakhpur. As per the Chief Minister’s Office, President Murmu will unveil the AYUSH University located in Pipri, Bhathat — a milestone in the state’s efforts to promote traditional medicine systems and holistic healthcare education. The university is expected to serve as a hub for integrating Ayurveda, Yoga, Unani, Siddha, and Homeopathy into mainstream education and healthcare delivery. This visit marks President Murmu’s fourth trip to Gorakhpur in the last seven years and highlights the city’s growing significance on the national stage. Her presence at both AIIMS and the new university echoes the state government’s continued focus on health and education infrastructure under Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath’s leadership. On July 1, President Murmu will address graduating students during the inaugural convocation ceremony at AIIMS Gorakhpur. The venue, along with the surrounding campus, has been brought under tight security. In anticipation of her visit, OPD services at AIIMS were suspended on June 30. Chief Minister Adityanath has closely monitored all arrangements, personally inspecting the 31-km route between Gorakhpur city and Pipri to ensure seamless logistics and security. The President is also expected to visit the revered Gorakhnath Temple, where traditional meals befitting her status have been arranged. City authorities have implemented heightened security protocols across key zones. SP (City) Abhinav Tyagi confirmed a comprehensive three-tier security setup and declared a no-fly zone within a five-kilometre radius of the Circuit House to ensure the President’s safety. The visit also shines a light on ongoing development at AIIMS Gorakhpur. In April, the Chief Minister laid the foundation stone for the 500-bed ‘Powergrid Vishram Sadan’ — a facility being developed under the Power Grid Corporation of India’s CSR programme at a cost of ₹44 crore. The Vishram Sadan is intended to provide affordable accommodation for patients and their families during treatment. President Murmu’s visit is seen as a moment of pride and progress for eastern Uttar Pradesh, reinforcing Gorakhpur’s emerging role as a hub for healthcare, education, and traditional medicine.
