Education196571 sections12 chapters

This legislation establishes and incorporates Gujarat Ayurved University in the State of Gujarat to provide systematic instruction, teaching, training, and research in the Ayurvedic system of medicine. It applies to educational and research institutions teaching Ayurveda, their faculty, students, registered graduates, and governing authorities across Gujarat. The Act defines the corporate powers of the university, sets up its administrative bodies such as the Senate, Syndicate, and Board of Post-Graduate Teaching and Research, and lays down procedures for college affiliation. It matters because it standardizes Ayurvedic medical education, fosters research into traditional healthcare practices, and ensures regulatory oversight for institutions teaching Ayurveda.
