Credibility and acceptability of homoeopathy will increase if scientific validation of the principles and practice of homeopathy is undertaken, stated Shripad Yesso Naik, Minister of State for AYUSH and Health & Family Welfare, during the Homeo-Vision 2016 conference held in Nagpur on February 13, 2016.
 
Shripad Naik said, “Homoeopathy is well assimilated into the ethos of Indian heritage and it is widely accepted by the public for many of their health care requirements. About 10 percent of the population depends on homeopathy for their health care needs.”
 
While highlighting the research, he said that several institutions are now showing keen interest to undertake research in homoeopathy and Central Council of Homeopathy (CCH) and Central Council for Research in Homeopathy (CCRH) under Government of India are encouraging Education and Research in Homeopathy.
 
Shripad Naik also stressed upon the objective of Ministry of AYUSH to develop the four core areas such as education, research, drug development and health care delivery.
