The Ministry has accepted the need for forging partnerships with like minded and stake-holding institutions for increasing the depth and scope of AYUSH Health Solutions that are available to the public. Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) are also being encouraged by the ministry as a strategy to augment the inflow of resources into the Ayush Sector. The current MoU is an outcome of this approach.
These two institutions will together put their efforts for evolving knowledge and procedures which will be of use to the National Healthcare System and ultimately to the relevant health solutions at a population scale.
