The Health Camp provided free Ayurveda-based consultations and treatments to the general public, while the scientific sessions explored complex disease management through Ayurveda, addressing areas such as cardiology, nephrology, and surgical interventions.

These steps are vital to not only preserving Ayurveda\u2019s legacy but also positioning it as a\u00a0<strong>globally respected wellness science<\/strong>\u00a0supported by modern evidence.<\/p>\n<p>Looking ahead to the\u00a0<strong>International Day of Yoga<\/strong>, he announced upcoming Ministry initiatives including\u00a0<strong>10 signature events<\/strong>\u00a0across India. A key highlight is\u00a0<strong>Yoga Bandhan<\/strong>, a cultural and yogic exchange involving five Indian yoga experts visiting ten countries and five international experts visiting India. Other initiatives include the\u00a0<strong>Yoga Mahakumbh<\/strong>\u00a0and the development of\u00a0<strong>1,000 dedicated yoga parks<\/strong>\u00a0across India.
