Today Ayurveda needs no new introduction as in these trying times (with its fair share of allegations and controversies) it has held its ground as it has done for thousands of years in the past.
But as much as I love to rejoice this resurgence of awareness of Ayurveda, being an Ayurveda doctor, there is a big cause of concern; as forests along with flora of medicinal herbs are on the decline. Meanwhile, demand for Ayurveda medicine is getting high. Generally, this type of scenario promotes heavy adulteration leading to less effective Ayurveda / herbal medicines pouring into the market, to a point where possibly Ayurveda doctors themselves might lose their trust in Ayurveda/herbal medicine eventually.
To address this very problem we have decided to take steps along with help from the Government of India with its various schemes. Our organization ‘Aadivasi evam Aadim Samaj Vikas Sanstha’ have decided to take up the call and help on the society in the process Under ‘Pradhan Mantri VandanaYojana’. we are now training the tribal people to identify, preserve and technically harvest these medicinal herbs from the local forest regions. With this effort, we are also ensuring the limitation of indigenous species of herbs which are done by trained local tribes in a conservative manner so as not to harm the existing ecology. These collected herbs will be purchased from these tribes ensuring their financial well-being. With the help of Ayurveda experts and experts Botanist, we are also ensuring the collection of accurate herbs. These collected herbs will be sorted and cleaned before the supply, also done by local tribes and are being paid on a daily-wage basis for the same. This ‘Aadivasi evam Aadim Samaj Vikas Sanstha’ are starting 15 centers across Maharashtra state as a pilot project and will be spreading to neighbouring states such as Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat, Uttar Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, etc. very soon.
This initiative will ensure the purest form of unadulterated herbs directly supplied to herbal manufacturers which would eventually ensure improved quality of Ayurvedic/herbal medicines along with gradual development of our tribal brothers and sisters and a chance to preserve our nature and Ayurveda. In addition to herbal collection and forest preservation, organizations will also be starting small medical centers and ambulances for remote outreach. The organization has also planned to start some basic education for tribal children ensuring their embodiment in our society with improved living standards.
