Ayur Expo - 2007

Expo Overview
The quest for the good health has been going on incessantly for ages. Exploring every avenue in search of health, Ayurveda is held in veneration since antiquity. According to WHO, more than 60% of people in this world are still relaying on Ayurveda and other herbal and traditional medicines for their health purposes. In Nepal, more than 80% people are using Ayurveda and the data is still air rocketing. Furthermore, its scopes and importance are rapidly increasing all over the world due to its safety major, efficacy, easily availability and affordability etc.
In spite of its invincible acclamation, there are many hindrances viz. mutual misconceptions, lack of promotion, an immense dominance by others etc. Ruin of such obstacles is the utmost need to be exposed. It is therefore necessary if there may be any marked outcome from Ayurveda, it has to be highlighted.
The students are getting ready for the exhibition through the Nepal Ayurveda Medical Students Society (NAMSS) to make rapid strides with the name of "Ayur Expo 2007". However, it needs a tremendous support from all related sectors. So, we are submitting the proposal with details for your humble support. This proposal is a herald of exhibition.
