Mandsaur (Madhya Pradesh): The Ayush Medical Association Mandsaur in collaboration with the BJP Medical Cell presented a memorandum to Deputy Chief Minister Jagdish Devda.
The memorandum emphasised that doctors holding BAMS, BHMS and BUMS degrees under the AYUSH system are qualified professionals who have completed a rigorous 5.2-year course from recognised universities and should not be wrongly categorised as quacks.
The memorandum was presented in response to the current crackdown by the government on unqualified practitioners. While the AYUSH organisation welcomed the action, they expressed concerns that genuine AYUSH doctors could be mistakenly harassed or misclassified due to a lack of understanding of their qualifications.

The association also put forth a demand that the registration of AYUSH doctors should be handled by the district AYUSH office rather than the CMHO office, ensuring that their credentials are recognised appropriately.
The delegation presenting the memorandum included Dr Mukesh Kumawat, district president of Ayush Medical Association, Dr RajmalSethia, district coordinator of BJP Medical Cell, Dr Jawahar Singh Mandloi, senior vice-president of Ayush Medical Association MP, and Dr Rajesh Borana, district secretary of Arogya Bharti, along with other esteemed members and AYUSH doctors from the Mandsaur and Neemuch districts.
