Under the centrally sponsored National AYUSH Mission (NAM), the Government of India is significantly expanding the nation's traditional healthcare infrastructure and educational network in partnership with States and Union Territories. Financial assistance is being directed toward establishing new AYUSH colleges, setting up integrated hospitals ranging from 10 to 50 beds, upgrading existing government dispensaries, and operationalizing Ayushman Arogya Mandirs (AYUSH). By submitting region-specific proposals through State Annual Action Plans, local governments can tailor these expansions to address healthcare shortages in underserved areas and improve access to affordable, preventive traditional medicine nationwide. Between FY2015 and FY2026, the central government disbursed ₹64,069.92 crore (US$ 8.66 billion) to execute approved NAM projects, with Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, and Madhya Pradesh receiving the largest shares of funding. Beyond modernizing infrastructure and expanding educational institutions, this sustained financial push aims to generate substantial employment opportunities across the health sector. Ultimately, these ongoing initiatives are designed to deliver widespread, affordable care to citizens while reinforcing India’s standing as a global hub for traditional systems of medicine.
