He said that a global level Ayurveda Sammelan should be held during Simhastha 2016 so that Ayurveda knowledge and products available in Madhya Pradesh can be introduced at international level.

The state government will promote manufacture of forest produce-based medicines and will also leave no stone unturned in their marketing and branding.

In accordance with it, Vindhya Valley products will be displayed at Sanchiparlours.
