AIIA-iCAINE, which celebrated its sixth Foundation Day, is recognised as which of the following?
- A.India's first private Ayurveda incubator
- B.India's first public-sector Ayurveda business incubator
- C.The oldest Ayurveda research council in India
- D.The first Ayurveda incubator run by an engineering institute
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is India's first public-sector Ayurveda business incubator. AIIA-iCAINE was established on 29 October 2021 under the mandate of the Ministry of Ayush at the All India Institute of Ayurveda in New Delhi, and it supports Ayurveda-based products, services and enterprises through mentorship, capacity building, institutional partnerships and industry engagement. Option A is wrong because the centre sits inside a government institute under the Ministry of Ayush and is therefore not a private incubator. Option C is wrong because the centre is an incubator for startups and enterprises, not a research council, and its stated work is incubation and entrepreneurship rather than the conduct of council-level research. Option D is wrong because the host is the All India Institute of Ayurveda, a medical institute, and not an engineering institute; IIT Bombay enters the picture only as the organiser of the AI challenge through its festival Techfest.
