“Indian culture holds “Aarogyam Paramam Bhagyam”–good health is the highest fortune. Being disease-free is considered the greatest blessing, and among the seven joys described by our ancestors, the first joy is a healthy body. To maintain health, sages inherited the world’s unique sciences, Yoga and Ayurveda, which emphasise adopting a lifestyle that prevents illness and prioritises sound health. By following the principles of Ayurveda, one can realise the blessings of ‘Ayushman Bhav’,” the CM said.

Additionally, a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was exchanged between the AYUSH (Ayurveda, Yoga & Naturopathy, Unani, Siddha, and Homoeopathy) and Tourism Departments to promote wellness in the state.

The CM also expressed his personal strong faith in Ayurveda for health protection. Following Ayurvedic discipline has kept him free from lifestyle diseases like high blood pressure and diabetes, enabling him to remain actively devoted to public service. He emphasised the importance of aligning daily routines with Ayurvedic principles. (ANI)
