Ayurveda to be preserved and developed

Kamburupitiya group correspondent

An Ayurveda Preservation and Development Programme on a five year plan is to be implemented by the government, said the Southern Province Ayurvedic Commissioner, R. H. A. Gunawardena.

The SP Ayurvedic Commissioner said so at a function held at Tusita Pirivena, Urubokka to inaugurate an Ayurvedic Mobile Clinic and an exhibition conducted by the Ayurvedic Preservation Board of Pasgoda.

Ven. Bengamuwa Chandananda Thera, President of the Pasgoda Peace Conciliation Board chaired the function.

The Commissioner further said that steps would be taken soon to set up more Ayurvedic Preservation Boards on Divisional Secretariat basis and Ayurvedic Medical Villages would also be set up in each such secretariat at the rate of 2 for each.

Steps would also be taken to have an Ayurvedic Treatment Centre attached to each such Divisional Secretariat. Ayurvedic drugs needed for ayurvedic physicians in the Southern Province would be provided through the Beliatta Ayurveda Drugs Dispensary in future.

Machinery required for producing drugs at this dispensary had already been installed, he said.

He further said that steps had also been taken to teach ayurveda as a subject in school curriculum by 2005 and a fund would be set up for efficiently conducting the Ayurvedic Preservation Boards.
