Interesting to see India promoting traditional medicine alongside modern healthcare. The holistic approach to pediatric health makes sense, especially for preventive care. Would love to see more evidence-based studies published internationally.

While I appreciate the focus on Ayurveda, I hope they're also addressing safety concerns and standardization. Some traditional remedies need proper dosage guidelines for children. Integration with modern medicine should be done carefully.

Kaumarbhritya is such an important branch! Our ancestors had deep knowledge about child healthcare that we're rediscovering now. Good to see young scholars participating - this knowledge must be preserved for future generations. 🇮🇳
