Delegates representing 23 countries at the 4th World Ayurveda Congress and Arogya Expo near here took a pledge to promote and contribute to the growth and sustenance of the Ayurvedic traditional system of medicine.
The delegates sought standard government regulations for the system, saying it is gaining popularity at the global level.
They said people in many countries are consuming Ayurvedic medicine and food supplements.
The delegates felt that though practitioners abroad depended on research done by Indian doctors on Ayurveda, researchers in the field have received very little encouragement from the government.
Dr Anonio Morandi, an Ayurveda practitioner from Italy, said that though India has a lot of potential in guiding the world about Ayurveda, there was no governmental support.
K. Satish Nair, a delegate from Malaysia, said the Ayurvedic medical system must be in unison with current and traditional medical law.
"There should be a good fusion of medicine in order to give mankind a good choice," said the managing director of Biourah (M) Sdn Bhd.
