This event marked the beginning of a new chapter in the growth of naturopathy and yoga science in Madhya Pradesh.

The committee discussed a one-year strategy and outlined the roles and responsibilities of newly inducted naturopathy and yoga doctors. In his address, President Ankesh Singh emphasized that while other states have made significant progress in this field, Madhya Pradesh lags behind. The new executive aims to bridge this gap through government and private-level initiatives, including the establishment of research and wellness centers to promote healthier lifestyles across the state.
