It now becomes clear that Central council of Homoeopathy being the technical body is only authority to take appropriate decision regarding the educational and infrastructural matter of the Homoeopathic colleges. 

Earlier CCH had conduct the inspection and recommended on the basis of merit and demerits observed in the inspection report which taken as doubtful by the AYUSH  Ministry and went beyond its jurisdiction to conduct inspection of its own. AYUSH Ministry also overlooked regulations and took unilateral decision.
