This Act establishes The Gujarat Ayurved University to regulate and promote the study of the Ayurvedic system of medicine in the state. It provides the legal framework for the university to offer degrees, conduct research, and manage affiliated colleges and institutions. By creating a dedicated body corporate, the law empowers the university to acquire property, raise funds, and set academic standards. This ensures the systematic advancement and dissemination of traditional Indian medical knowledge, including the Ashtang Ayurvedic system, while maintaining quality control over education in this field.
