Health being a state
subject, the practice of AYUSH doctors is regulated by the respective State
Governments. However, Government of India has set up two regulatory bodies,
namely, Central Council of Indian Medicine (CCIM) under Indian Medicine Central
Council (IMCC) Act 1970 for regulation of educational institutions and
practitioners in respect of Ayurveda, Unani and Sidha systems of medicines and
Central Council of Homoeopathy (CCH) under Homoeopathy Central Council Act,
1973 for regulation of educational institutions and practitioners in respect of
Homoeopathy system of medicines. At present Yoga & Naturopathy, being
drugless systems, are not regulated.
The state-wise details of institutions
providing education of AYUSH in the country is given below:-
