c) Brief history and background for its establishment
This directorate started functioning as an adjunct to the Directorate of
Health Services. For variety of reasons Indian Systems of Medicine and
Homoeopathy could not develop to a level where it should have. Tibbia College
at Hindustani Dawakhana was founded as a private
trust in 1921 and once had acquired international recognition.
In 1952 the Delhi Legislative Assembly wound up the private trust and
transferred the ownership of the college to a statutory Board. The academic
activities of Tibbia College and Hindustani Dawakhana
were sustained from 100% Government Grants. Statutory Board could not continue
with its mission for long. Soon the College became a hot bed of politics and
misrule. To end the same the Government of NCT of Delhi enacted a law
known as Delhi Tibbia College (Take over) Act 1997 and with effect from 1.5.1998
the statutory board was wound up and ownership transferred to the Government.
Nehru Homoeopathic Medical College, another institution in private sector was
taken over in 1972, because the private promoters were unable to run, operate
and manage the same from private resources.
In 1986, the Ayurvedic medical college “ SD College” faced closure. To
protect the interest of students studying in this college, the government
provided liberal grants before college was wound up. Some employees of this college
were absorbed to various offices of the Government, in 1994.
In August 1996 it became evident that the Directorate of Health Services could
not support the fast expanding alternative systems of medicine and as a
consequence the Directorate was established to provide impetus to the
development of AYUSH in NCT of Delhi.
