Why in News?
The Ayush Anudan Portal is in the news because the Ministry of Ayush has recently launched it as a new, unified digital platform to manage grants and funding proposals online, aiming for transparency and “paperless governance” in the AYUSH sector.
Key Information
- Core Purpose: Digitalises the submission, processing, validation, and real-time monitoring of funding proposals.
- NITI Aayog Integration: Seamlessly syncs with the national NGO Darpan Portal to authenticate and verify applicant organisations.
- Eligibility Rule: Only Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) registered with a valid unique ID on the NGO Darpan portal can apply for grants.
- Financial Integration: Connects with the Public Financial Management System (PFMS) to securely automate and manage the release of funds.
- Paperless Governance: Eliminates physical paperwork and manual file submissions to significantly reduce administrative delays.
- Scheme-Specific Categorisation: Organises and reviews applications according to the distinct guidelines of individual Central Sector Schemes.
- Unified Accessibility: Available directly via the official Ayush Anudan website or through the My Ayush Integrated Services Portal (MAISP).
Supported Schemes Under the Portal
Funding and grant applications can be processed for several key Central Sector Schemes:
- AYURGYAN: Scheme focused on research, capacity building, and academic publication in Ayush systems.
- AYURSWASTHYA: Focuses on community health interventions and public health deployment.
- Information, Education, and Communication (IEC): Supports Ayush exhibitions, fairs, and awareness campaigns.
- Medicinal Plants Conservation: Handles proposals for the development, sustainable management, and farming of medicinal herbs.
