Although the State Cabinet had already given approval for setting up of an Ayush department in the State on September 9, 2009, the State Government is yet to take up any step to implement it till date.
Failure on the part of the State Government to establish the department has caused a big disadvantage to people who want affordable Ayush treatment, official sources said on Sunday.
So far, 32 individuals have been recruited as staff members of the proposed department which requires the strength of 42 staff in order to convert it into a directorate.
However, the job regarding appointment of a director of the department is yet to be done.
As a matter of fact, the Government of India has been providing various Ayush schemes from time to time, but bad policy of the State Government has made such schemes inactive, the sources said.[Source]
