The first of its kind in the country, bachelor's level course in Ayurveda Science has started on Monday in a school at Gaushala Municipality-12 in Mahottari district.
The classes are offered by Shree Rashtriya Secondary School at Kantibazaar in Gaushala.
At a program organised here on Monday, former health minister Girirajmani Pokhrel marked the beginning of regular classes at bachelor's level in Ayurveda Science. The course is run by taking a license from Council for Technical Education and Vocational Training (CTEVT), the officials said.
On the occasion, former minister Pokhrel urged to establish linkages between Ayurveda and modern science.
Saying that the people of the new generation have limited ideas about yoga, meditation, and Ayurveda due to massive concentration on western science, Pokhrel urged one and all to fully utilize the Ayurveda education to keep the ancient knowledge and science alive.
He argued that there was no alternative to yoga, meditation, and Ayurveda medicines to live a healthy and long life.
