Delhi: CJI DY Chandrachud inaugurates AYUSH Holistic Wellness Centre at the Supreme Court premises.
CJI DY Chandrachud says, “I have been associated with AYUSH since covid broke. I had a really bad attack with covid and PM Modi called me up and said, ‘I believe that you are down with Covid and I hope everything is fine. I realize that you are not in good shape but we’ll do everything. There is a Vaidya who is also a secretary at AYUSH and I’ll arrange a call with him who’ll send you medicine and all.’ I took medicine from AYUSH when I was down with Covid. The 2nd & 3rd times when I had Covid, I didn’t take any allopathic medicine at all… All judges, their families and more than 2000 staff members of the Supreme Court, I am very concerned about them as they don’t get the facilities that judges have. I want them to have a holistic pattern of life… I would like to thank the minister Sarbananda Sonowal…”
He says, “For me, this is a satisfying moment. I have been working on this ever since I took over as CJI. I am a proponent of Ayurveda and holistic lifestyle. We have over 2000 staff members, and we must look at a holistic pattern of living, not just for the judges and their immediate families but for the staff members too… I am deeply grateful to all the doctors at AYUSH… We are unveiling this to the Supreme Court and through it to the entire nation…”
CJI DY Chandrachud says, “I do Yoga. I follow a vegan diet, in the last five months I have completely followed a vegan diet and I will continue it. I try and focus on the holistic pattern of life which begins with what you eat.”
