Dr Nesari has been honoured for her exceptional service of the highest order for the promotion of Ayurveda
Recognising her contribution towards furthering the growth of Ayurveda in India and abroad, the UK’s All-Party Parliamentary Group on Indian Traditional Sciences (ITSappg) conferred the Ayurveda Ratna award on Dr Tanuja Nesari, Director, All India Institute of Ayurveda (AIIA), an autonomous organisation under Ministry of Ayush.
Dr Nesari has been honoured for her exceptional service of the highest order for the promotion of Ayurveda by an ITSappg committee represented by dignitaries including Amarjeet S Bhamra, Ambassador for Ayurveda and Yoga in Great Britain; Virendra Sharma, MP, UK Parliament and Chair, ITSappg; and Bob Blackman, MP, UK Parliament and Chair, ITSappg.
ITSappg is working on a book that will serve as an introductory guide to Indian Traditional Sciences for parliamentarians and would also have a contribution from the Ministry of Ayush. It is dedicated to encouraging research in the UK and recently concluded research on Ashwagandha.
Dr Nesari said, “I am humbled and honoured to accept this award from the UK’s All-Party Parliamentary Group on Indian Traditional Sciences. For me, it represents not only a privilege but a responsibility that I have been bestowed with. It reinforces my belief in Ayurveda’s ability to touch people’s lives across the world and promote holistic healing in sync with nature. Today, Ayurveda as medicine is gaining momentum.”
