On its 10th Foundation Day, the All India Institute of Ayurveda signed Memorandums of Understanding with which two organisations?
- A.Rashtriya Ayurved Vidyapeeth and Arogya Bharati
- B.The National Medical Commission and Arogya Bharati
- C.Rashtriya Ayurved Vidyapeeth and the Indian Council of Medical Research
- D.The Ministry of Ayush and the National Medical Commission
Correct answer
Explanation
The correct answer is Rashtriya Ayurved Vidyapeeth and Arogya Bharati. Both agreements were signed at the Foundation Day ceremony to strengthen cooperation between institutions and the sharing of knowledge in Ayurveda. The agreement with Rashtriya Ayurved Vidyapeeth also recognises the Department of Kaumarbhritya at the Delhi and Goa campuses as a Centre of Excellence, and provides for training, standard operating procedures and work on an SOP for Swarnaprashan Samskar. Options B and D bring in the National Medical Commission. A member of that body attended the ceremony as a special guest, but the Commission did not sign an agreement. Option C substitutes the Indian Council of Medical Research for Arogya Bharati, which is wrong because the second signatory was Arogya Bharati. Aspirants should also note the separate international agreement with Maharishi International University in the United States.
