The initiative, led by the <strong>Department of AYUSH<\/strong>, aims to enhance professional training in traditional healing systems and create new employment opportunities in the fast-growing wellness sector.<\/p>\n<p>At present, the state offers only <strong>36 seats<\/strong> in the Panchkarma Technician course. Acting on the directives of <strong>Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu<\/strong>, the AYUSH Department will now increase the total intake to <strong>252 seats<\/strong>, significantly expanding opportunities for the youth.<\/p>\n<p>A government spokesperson said that the <strong>Rajiv Gandhi Government Post Graduate Ayurvedic College and Hospital, Paprola (Kangra)<\/strong>, and the <strong>Regional Ayurvedic Hospital, Chhota Shimla<\/strong>, currently admit 18 students each. Under the expansion plan, the intake capacity at Paprola will be <strong>doubled to 36<\/strong>, while Chhota Shimla will admit <strong>24 students<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, <strong>12 new institutions<\/strong> will begin offering the course from the upcoming academic year. These include <strong>District Ayurvedic Hospitals<\/strong> at <strong>Bilaspur, Chamba, Hamirpur, Kangra, Kullu, Mandi, Solan, Una, and Nahan<\/strong>, as well as <strong>Ayurvedic Hospitals at Nalagarh, Dehra, and Rampur<\/strong>\u2014each with <strong>16 seats<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The spokesperson emphasized that the decision will not only help generate skilled Panchkarma technicians within the state but also strengthen Himachal\u2019s position as a <strong>hub for holistic health and wellness tourism<\/strong>. \u201cThe initiative will bridge the gap between traditional healing practices and modern wellness needs, offering professional training to youth and promoting Himachal as a centre of natural healing,\u201d the official said.<\/p>\n<p>Highlighting the state\u2019s rich natural resources, the spokesperson added that Himachal Pradesh is a <strong>treasure trove of medicinal herbs<\/strong>, providing a natural advantage for developing Panchkarma-based wellness therapies. Recognizing this potential, the Chief Minister has directed the Department to scale up training facilities and fully utilize the state\u2019s herbal wealth for economic and health-related benefits.<\/p>\n<p>The introduction of Panchkarma Technician courses at multiple centres is expected to open <strong>new avenues for self-employment and entrepreneurship<\/strong>, particularly in the fields of spa management, wellness retreats, and Ayurvedic therapy centres.<\/p>\n<p>With this expansion, the government envisions a strong workforce of trained Panchkarma professionals capable of meeting the rising demand for <strong>Ayurvedic and holistic healthcare services<\/strong> both within India and internationally. The move is also seen as a strategic push toward <strong>integrating traditional medicine with tourism and sustainable development<\/strong>, making Himachal Pradesh a prominent name in India\u2019s wellness map.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AYUSH Department to Launch Panchkarma Technician Courses in 12 Ayurvedic Hospitals Across Himachal Pradesh.\u00a0 Move aimed at boosting wellness and medical tourism;
