Itanagar, Apr 25: The 6th governing body meeting of Arunachal Pradesh AYUSH Society was convened by Chief Secretary Satya Gopal at CS Conference Hall here at Civil Secretariat on April 24 last to finalise the State Annual Action Plan 2019-20 under the National AYUSH Mission. 
The meeting was attended by Principal Secretary Health Dr. A. C. Verma, PCCF Dr. Rabindra Kumar, Finance Secretary Y.W. Ringu, Secretary Health Juhi Mukherjee, Director Health Services Dr. M. Lego & officers from Agriculture and Horticulture departments.
Reviewing the details of the State Annual Action Plan, Chief Secretary stressed on proper evaluation and assessment of the training components. Supporting the need for regular training to ASHA Workers and ANMs, he issued directives to devise an evaluation and assessment format to measure the productivity of trainings.

The formats should be devised in a manner where the feedbacks from both the trainers and trainees are obtained, he said.

Alarmed with the high number of cancer patients and cases in Arunachal Pradesh, CS urged the health department to conduct Cancer Awareness Camps regularly. “We should invite Master Trainers from Government of India and institutes like AIIMS,” he added. He also suggested that the AYUSH should conduct health camps at Sarkar Apke Dwar programmes.
Further, considering the free health services rendered by the traditional healers in Arunachal Pradesh, CS desired that they should be given proper recognition and credit by the concerned authorities for their selfless service to mankind.
The meeting approved the State Annual Action Plan 2019-20 presented by Deputy Director AYUSH Dr. Dusu Laji for onward submission to Government of India. PRO CS
