REPORT OF THE JOINT COMMITTEE

1. the Chairman of the Joint Committee to which the Bill* to provide for the constitution of a Central Council of Indian Medicine and Homoeo- pathy and the maintenance of a Central Register of Indian Medicine and Homoeopathy and for matters connected therewith, was referred, having been authorised to submit the Report on their behalf, present this their Report, with the Bill as amended by the Committee, annexed thereto.

2. The Bill was introduced in the Rajya Sabha on the 27th December, 1968. The motion for reference of the Bill to a Joint Committee of the Houses was moved by Shri M. P. Bhargava, on the 25th February, 1969 and was adopted by the House on the same day (Appendix I).

3. The Lok Sabha discussed and concurred in the motion on the 25th March, 1969 (Appendix II).

4. The message from the Lok Sabha was reported to Rajya Sabha on the 28th March, 1969.

5. The Committee held 18 sittings in all.

6. At their first sitting held on the 31st March, 1969, the Committee decided that a Press Communique be issued inviting memoranda on the Bill from various associations, organisations and individuals interested in the subject matter of the Bill and advising them to send their memo- randa so as to reach the Rajya Sabha Secretariat by the 30th April, 1969. The Committee also decided to call witnesses for giving oral evidence on the Bill and authorised the Chairman to decide, after examining all the memoranda, as to who should be Invited for the purpose. The Chair- man also requested members to suggest names of persons who might be invited for giving oral evidence before the Committee.

7. One hundred and thirty-two memoranda, notes etc. on the Bill were received by the Committee (Appendix III).

8. The Committee heard evidence tendered by thirty witnesses (Ap- pendix rv).

9. The Committee decided that the evidence tendered before them should be laid on the Table of the House.

10. The report of the Committee was to be presented to the House on the first day of the Sixty-ninth Session of the Rajya Sabha. The Com- mittee were, however, granted extension of time up to the first day of the Seventieth Session of the Rajya Sabha.

11. The Committee had set up two study-groups—one to visit the im- portant Ayurvedic Institutions in Kerala and the other to make an on- the-spot study of the Gujarat Ayurveda University, Jamnagar. The notes

•Published in Part II, Section 2 of the Gazette of India Extraordinary, dated the 27th December, 1968.

prepared by the two study groups (Appendix V) were circulated to the members of the Committee.

12. The principal changes suggested by the Committee in the BUI and

the reasons therefor are set out in the succeeding paragraphs.

During the course of recording oral evidence almost all the witnesses, amongst whom were included exponents of Homoeopathy and all the three systems of Indian Medicine, namely, the Ayurveda, Siddha and Unani, asserted that the basic concepts of the Indian systems of medicine were totally different from the fundamentals of Homoeopathy. They were, therefore, of the opinion that Homoeopathy should not be tagged on to the Indian systems by providing for a single composite Central Council for all the four systems of medicine and that a separate Council for Homoeopathy should be provided. The Committee have given a very careful thought to this question. They came to the conclusion that the science of Homoeopathy being basically different from that of all the three Indian systems of medicine a composite council for all the four systems would not help in the advancement of any of them. The Com- mittee are, therefore, of the opinion that for the proper growth and deve- lopment of all the four systems, there should be two separate and inde- pendent Central Council—one for all the three Indian systems of medi- cine and the other for Homoeopathy. The Committee also feel that it would be desirable to have two separate enactments—one for the consti- tution of a Central Council for the three Indian systems of medicine and the other for the constitution of a Central Council for Homoeopathy. As however an express authority of Parliament is necessary to enable the Committee to divide the Bill referred to them into two separate Bills, the Committee have amended the Bill suitably so as to make provision for a composite Central Council for only the three Indian systems of medi- cine, namely, the Ayurveda, Siddha and Unani and for matters connected therewith, deleting therefrom all references to Homoeopathy. In fact a separate draft Bill was circulated to the Committee dealing inter alia with the constitution of a Central Council for Homoeopathy and for mat- ters connected therewith. The Committee recommend that a separate Bill for Homoeopathy prepared on the same lines may be Introduced in Parliament at an early date.

CLAUSE 2

In view of the fact that there may be some Universities like the Gujarat Ayurveda University, Jamnagar, which may not have a Faculty of Indian Medicine but have provision for diploma, graduate and post- graduate courses in such medicine, the definition of the term "University" has been enlarged so as to bring within its scope all such Universities. Paragraph (k) [original paragraph (1)] of the clause has, therefore, been amended suitably,

CLAUSE 3

Sub-clause (1)

Paragraph (a) .—The Committee feel that it will not be reasonable to lay down that each system of Indian Medicine In each State should elect one representative to the Central Council irrespective of the number of registered practitioners of that system in that State. The Committee have, therefor*, amended the paragraph so as to fix the scale of represetv

tation according to a slab system based on the number of registered prac- titioners in that system, subject to a maximum of five representatives. A new Schedule—as the First Schedule—has been added by the Committee which gives the scale of representation.

Paragraph (b).—The Committee are of the view that the Central Council should have a member for each of the Ayurveda, Siddha and Unanl systems of medicine from each University to be elected from amongst themselves by the members of the Faculty or Department of the respective systems ot medicine of that University. The paragraph has been amended to achieve this objective.

Paragraph (c).— (i) The Committee are of the view that the strength of the nominated element in the Central Council should not be as high as fifty percent of the total strength. Hence the maximum limit of nominated members has been brought down to thirty percent,

(li) The paragraph has been further modified so as to enable the Gov- ernment to nominate, if necessary, eminent persons In the field of Indian Medicine having special knowledge or practical experience of such medi- cine.

CLAUSE 10

The Committee feel that the Council should be left free to decide the composition of the Committee relating to education in Indian medi- cine and the conditions regarding the period of ten years' practice and possession of recognised medical qualification in respect of two-thirds of the members thereof should not be insisted upon.

The proviso to the clause has accordingly been deleted.

CLAUSE 17

The Committee are of the opinion that the existing rights and privi- leges of practitioners of Indian Medicine should be given adequate safe- guards. The Committee, in order to achieve this objective, have added three new paragraphs to sub-clause (3) of the clause protecting (i) the rights to practise of those practitioners of Indian Medicine who may not, under the proposed legislation, possess a recognised qualification subject to the condition that they are already enrolled on a State Register of Indian Medicine on the date of commencement of this Act, (ii) the pri- vileges conferred on the practitioners of Indian Medicine enrolled on a State Register, under any law in force in that State, and (111) the right to practise in a state of those practitioners who have been practising Indian Medicine in that State for not less than five years where no Re- gister of Indian Medicine was maintained earlier.

CLAUSE 31

As the period of thirty days prescribed for notifying the change of place of residence or practice by persons registered on the Central Re- gister was considered to be short, the Committee have extended the same to ninety days,

FIRST SCHEDULE (NEW)

Consequent on the amendment made in paragraph (a) of clause 3(1) the new schedule has been added.

SECOND SCHEDULE (ORIGINAL FIRST SCHEDULE); THIRD SCHEDULE AND FOURTH SCHEDULE

The Schedules were amended, in the light of up-to-date information furnished by the Ministry of Health, Family Planning and Works, Hous- ing and Urban Development.

CLAUSE 1

In view of the fact that different State Laws regulating registration and practice in the Indian systems of medicine, and matters connected therewith, are in force in different States, the Committee feel that the Central Government should have authority to appoint different dates of commencement of the Act in different States and that the Central Gov- ernment should also have the authority to enforce the Act in the States by parts, if necessary. Sub-clause (3) has accordingly been amended to achieve this objective.

The other changes made in the Bill are of a consequential or drafting nature.

13. The Committee recommend that the Bill as amended be passed.
