Bengaluru, which is considered a hub of Information technology and biotechnology, is now also emerging as a hub of traditional medicine in the world, said Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Thursday.
Speaking after inaugurating ‘Kshemavana’, a wellness centre set up by Sri Kshetra Dharmasthala Manjunatheshwara Institute of Naturopathy and Yogic Sciences at Nelamangala on the outskirts of Bengaluru, he said, “The world saw the power of yoga and traditional Indian systems of medicine during the COVID-19 pandemic, when fatalities in India were half of that in the US.”
“Despite the U.S. population being one-fourth of ours, COVID-19 fatalities there were double that of ours. This proves that the traditional Indian systems of medicine which we recognise as AYUSH boost our immunity and strengthen the lifespan of people,” he said.
