graduate courses, PhD courses, M.Sc. in Life Sciences, and to run various diploma and certificate courses.The Bill, passed unanimously by the House after a discussion on the penultimate day of the current session, will replace an ordinance

The sponsors have deposited Rs.2 crore with

India is far ahead of the United States, Europe, Australia and every other country when it comes to accepting homeopathy as a official medical method. They have the most students, teachers, teaching hospitals, clinics and now research university. They have declared numerous governmental policies during times of epidemic and invested research funds into finding successful remedies to save and cure the people from contagious disease.
Fortunately, with a large population these studies will be representative of the power of these remedies when well chosen by expertly trained homeopaths. Each day we hear new formations and protocols are showing rewarding results.
We need to keep our eye on India for more than great movies!

Pity to put women and handicapped persons in the same line (are women handicapped purely by their sex?), but otherwise a great move forward. Perhaps they could make it internationally recognised so attract many foreign students. That would be good for their economy and good for the standard of graduates.
