This also highlights the relevance of Ayurveda for the healthcare of people across the globe, irrespective of their religion, ethnicity, social status and geographical boundaries. The special focus on innovation would attract and inspire our youngsters to indulge in Ayurveda and establish startups. I also see lots of vibration and enthusiasm in the people of North East states and rising acceptance of Ayurveda in all North East states.”
