AI-powered translation to make evidence-based scientific knowledge accessible across linguistic barriers Posted On: 30 MAR 2026 4:48PM by PIB Delhi In a significant step toward making information about evidence-based Ayurveda accessible across linguistic barriers, the Central Council for Research in Ayurvedic Sciences (CCRAS), Ministry of Ayush, signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Anuvadini AI, a platform designed by the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) under the Ministry of Education, Government of India. The initiative aims to expand public access to evidence-based Ayurveda knowledge across India. Under this MoU, Anuvadini AI will facilitate the translation of CCRAS's research outputs and educational materials into 13 regional languages, including Hindi, ensuring that evidence-based Ayurveda knowledge reaches every corner of the country. The MoU was signed by Prof. Vaidya Rabinarayan Acharya, Director General, CCRAS, and Dr. Buddha Chandrasekhar, CEO, Anuvadini AI, marking a significant convergence of advancing language technology and traditional Indian medical knowledge. Anuvadini AI focuses on translating technical, scientific, and governance-related knowledge into various Indian and foreign languages through artificial intelligence. Its objective is to ensure that credible, research-based information is accessible to citizens regardless of linguistic or regional background. CCRAS, with its network of 30 institutes across 25 states in India, conducts and publishes scientific research in Ayurveda sciences. One of its flagship publications, the CCRAS Bulletin, a quarterly research journal, along with other Information, Education, and Communication (IEC) materials, is currently published primarily in English. Under the MoU, Anuvadini AI will facilitate translation of these research outputs and educational resources into 13 regional languages, helping extend the reach of authentic Ayurveda knowledge to a wider range of the population and reduce the risk of misinformation. On the occasion, Prof. Rabinarayan Acharya, Director General, CCRAS, stated that the collaboration reflects CCRAS's commitment to ensuring that the outcomes of Ayurveda research benefit not only the academic community but also citizens across the country in respective languages. Dr. Buddha Chandrasekhar, CEO of Anuvadini AI, emphasised that the platform was developed specifically to support such collaborations, where technology helps make knowledge more accessible, equitable, and empowering for society. In the future, the initiative may also extend to foreign languages, beginning with languages of countries where the Ministry of Ayush and CCRAS have established Ayush Chairs , thereby expanding the global accessibility of authentic Ayurveda knowledge. ***** SR/SV (Release ID: 2246931) Visitor Counter : 2980 Read this release in: Telugu , Urdu , हिन्दी , Marathi , Gujarati AYUSH Ayurveda Research Accessible in 13 Languages: CCRAS Signs MoU with Anuvadini AI AI-powered translation to make evidence-based scientific knowledge accessible across linguistic barriers Posted On: 30 MAR 2026 4:48PM by PIB Delhi In a significant step toward making information about evidence-based Ayurveda accessible across linguistic barriers, the Central Council for Research in Ayurvedic Sciences (CCRAS), Ministry of Ayush, signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Anuvadini AI, a platform designed by the All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) under the Ministry of Education, Government of India.
