The first and foremost aim of Ayurveda is the promotion of health of an healthy individual and the prevention of diseases. Ayurveda stated that, the healthy body is the mean to achieve Dharma, Artha, Kama & Moksha. All the preventive principles are described in Ayurveda under the subject ", Swasthevritta ", which is known as preventive and social medicine in modern medical science. Swasthavritta has been included in 'IInd Professional B.A.M.S syllabus by C.C.I.M, New Delhi. There are some text books available in this subject as per the syllabus in Hindi and the regional languages. Most of the colleges do have the English as the medium of instructions and most of the students are also coming from English medium back ground.
