Formation of Research Councils
In 1969, the Government of India established the Central Council for
Research in Indian Medicine and Homoeopathy (CCRIMH) for conducting systematic
research in respective fields.
In 1978, the CCRIMH was dissolved to pave way for the constitution of four
separate research Councils, one each for Homoeopathy (CCRH), Ayurveda and Siddha
Medicine (CCRAS), Unani Medicine (CCRUM) and Yoga & Naturopathy (CCRYN). Such
independent set-up of the Councils facilitated the promotion of research in the
respective disciplines, on their own strengths.
BIRTH OF THE CENTRAL COUNCIL FOR RESEARCH IN
HOMOEOPATHY
The Central Council for Research in Homoeopathy (CCRH) was formally constituted
on 30
th March 1978 , as an autonomous organization and was registered under the
Societies Registration Act XXI of 1860. It was, however, in January 1979, that
the Council started functioning as an independent organization.
Aims and objectives:
- To formulate the aims and patterns of research on scientific
lines in Homoeopathy
- To initiate, develop, undertake and coordinate scientific research in
fundamental and applied aspects of Homoeopathy
- To exchange information with other institutions, associations and societies
interested in the objectives similar to those of the Council
- To collaborate research studies with other Institutes of Excellence towards
promotion of Homoeopathy
- To propagate research findings through monographs, journals, newsletters,
I.E.&C. materials, seminars/workshops and develop audio-visual aids for
dissemination of information to the profession and public
