New Delhi: India corrects regulations under the Biodiversity Act of 2002 to provide its Ayurvedic medicine, pharmaceutical and wellness sectors with fundamental strengthening and facilitating society access to natural resources while protecting the rich biodiversity of the country.
Reforms simplify the approval processes, give up approaches and fees for sharing benefits for start -ups and small businesses with a turnover below £5 Crore and drastically shortened the time needed for research, application and product checks.
Companies that seek access to biological resources and traditional knowledge usually need to navigate a comprehensive and time -consuming approval process.

By eviting compliance, the government seeks to speed up innovations in Ayurveda and herbal sciences, expand the affordable health care possibilities and strengthen the biological economy that balances growth by preservation.
These reforms are of great importance for the common public. Many daily medicines and wellness products, especially those that have been deeply rooted in traditional Indian systems such as Ayurveda, are derived from plants and other natural resources. By simplifying regulations, the government seeks to speed up the development and availability of these products, which potentially leads to a wider range of available and available health solutions.
The National Office for Biodiversity (NBA), operating under the Ministry of the Environment, Forests and Climate Change, has taken over this initiative to protect Indian natural resources, ensured their sustainable use and guaranteed fair sharing of the benefits with local communities.

On 21 August, the NBA Member Secretary described in detail these updates of industrial associations such as Ayurvedic Association of Drug Manufacturers (ADMA), Indian Indian Confederation (CII) and Federation of Indian Chamber and Industry (FICCI), emphasizing the responsibility and compliance with new laws on the biological environment.
The government step was welcomed by the industry. Sargam Dhawan, the director of the planet Lifesciences, said: “Ayurveda and herbal sciences are naturally associated with biological diversity, so its protection is essential not only for business growth, but also for the protection of traditional knowledge for future generations.
These regulations will also ensure that the Indian biodiversity is used in a fair and sustainable way. The framework orders that communities that traditionally protect and maintain these valuable resources gain a fair share of benefits when their knowledge and resources are commercialized.
“This balanced approach is decisive for long -term protection, which ensures that Indian unique flora and fauna continue to prosper for generations that come and provide invaluable sources for health and well -being for all,” said the Executive Director.
The Indian sector Ayurveda was estimated at $ 23.3 billion in 2022-23. This data, as the Ayush Ministry quoted in parliamentary answers, comes from the forum report on Indian traditional medicine.
