Push for Research, AI and Rural Reach as Karnataka Marks World Homeopathy Day<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Bengaluru, May 5, 2026:<\/strong> Karnataka Governor Thawar Chand Gehlot<\/span><\/span> said homeopathy is emerging as a widely accepted and effective system of medicine in India, benefiting millions across the country. He noted that the Union Ministry of AYUSH has made steady progress in promoting the system.<\/p>\n

Speaking at the World Homeopathy Day programme organised by the Homeopathy Foundation in collaboration with Rajiv Gandhi University of Health Sciences<\/span><\/span> on Tuesday, Gehlot said Karnataka has contributed to the growth of homeopathy through quality medical education, committed practitioners and research-based approaches.<\/p>\n

Recalling that World Homeopathy Day is observed on April 10 to mark the birth anniversary of Samuel Hahnemann<\/span><\/span>, he said the system focuses on treating the individual as a whole, balancing body, mind and spirit. \u201cMedicines given in the right dosage stimulate the body\u2019s natural immunity and help it heal itself,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

He pointed out that despite advances in modern medicine, lifestyle diseases, stress and chronic illnesses are increasing. \u201cIn such times, the holistic approach of homeopathy can guide us towards balanced and sustainable health,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Homeopathy Key to Tackling Lifestyle Diseases, Says Governor Thawar Chand Gehlot<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Referring to this year\u2019s theme, \u201cHomeopathy for Sustainable Health,\u201d Gehlot said sustainable health goes beyond curing diseases and includes long-term, accessible and environment-friendly healthcare. He stressed the need to strengthen research in homeopathy, adopt digital health and artificial intelligence, and present outcomes on global platforms to improve credibility.<\/p>\n

Calling students the future of the field, he urged them to combine traditional knowledge with modern science. \u201cHealthcare is not just an individual concern but a social responsibility. We must expand the reach of homeopathy in rural areas and ensure affordable treatment for all,\u201d he said. He also appreciated the role of the Homeopathy Foundation and RGUHS in education, research and public awareness.<\/p>\n

RGUHS Vice-Chancellor Dr B.C. Bhagavan said homeopathy focuses on identifying the root cause of disease rather than just treating symptoms. He added that the university is committed to strengthening homeopathy education and integrating it into mainstream healthcare. \u201cWith 18 affiliated colleges, including five postgraduate institutions, we are training thousands of future doctors,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Karnataka Homeopathy Board Chairman Dr B.T. Rudresh said nearly 50 per cent of illnesses may not require medicines but need care, empathy and support. \u201cDisease often arises from imbalances in relationships at home, society and workplace. Homeopathy addresses these underlying causes,\u201d he said, urging doctors to listen to patients and understand their problems before treatment.<\/p>\n

Jayanagar MLA C.K. Ramamurthy said public trust in homeopathy remains strong and doctors must uphold it through compassionate care. Additional Chief Secretary Mohammed Mohsin and other officials were present.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
