New Delhi: The First ever National Ayurveda Day was celebrated across the country on the occasion of Dhanwantari Jayanti on Friday. A Seminar on “Prevention and Control of Diabetes through Ayurveda” was held in New Delhi on Friday. An Ayurveda Day logo was also released on the occasion. The National Dhanwantary Ayurveda Awards were also given away on the day.
Inaugurating the seminar on Prevention and Control of Diabetes through Ayurveda, Minister of State (Independent Charge) for Ministry of Development of North Eastern Region, Minister of State for Prime Minister’s Office, Personnel, Public Grievance & Pension, Department of Atomic Energy and Department of Space, Dr Jitendra Singh said it is a historic moment today since the first ever National Ayurveda Day is being celebrated. The credit for the same goes to the vision of PM Narendra Modi and the hard work of MoS, AYUSH, Shripad Yesso Naik, he added.
Dr. Jitendra Singh said that it is even more commendable that this time, the special day has been dedicated to the theme of diabetes. He said India has seen a surge in the incidence of diabetes over the last 15 years, especially among the younger generation, according to a PIB release. Dr. Jitendra Singh advised that the focus of the government should be on youth and pregnant women with respect to diabetes control and management. Since mental stress could be one of the important reasons behind diabetes, a holistic management of the disease is required including Ayurveda, Unani, Naturopathy, Yoga and lifestyle management.

Addressing the gathering at the seminar, Naik said that Ayurveda touches the entire way of life and therefore we should look towards Ayurveda not only for treatment purposes but also for the promotion of a healthy life. There was a demand to declare Dhanwantari Jayanti as Ayurveda Day for a long time, so the government decided to go ahead and do the same, he explained.

A booklet on healthy recepies for diabetes, developed by All India Institute of Ayurveda, was also released on the occasion.Three renowned practitioners, academicians and researchers of Ayurveda received the National Dhanwantari Ayurveda Awards.
