Non-Government Colleges Lead Expansion of AYUSH Medical Education in India
India's AYUSH medical education sector has expanded significantly from 2021 to 2024, with the number of colleges rising from 789 to 971 and admission capacity increasing by nearly 25%. Government data shows this growth is largely driven by non-government institutions, which constitute about 85-86% of colleges across Ayurveda, Homoeopathy, Unani, Siddha, and Yoga and Naturopathy systems. The expansion aligns with the government's efforts to integrate AYUSH into mainstream healthcare, emphasizing education, regulation, and rural outreach.
