What parliamentary panel says

- KAVITA BAJELI-DATT @ New Delhi

A parliamentary panel has criticised the Ministry of Ayush for not fully utilising the funds allocated to it and said the Centre "must strive hard to integrate Ayush into mainstream healthcare."

The Ministry aims to enhance AYUSH services, particularly in underserved and remote areas, but it lacks the resources to do so effectively, said the department-related parliamentary standing committee on the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare.

"The need to establish integrated AYUSH hospitals in many districts has a high financial requirement," the committee, headed by Rajya Sabha MP Prof Ram Gopal Yadav, said.
