Revision as of 08:02, 14 January 2010 by Wifione (talk | contribs) (another citation, done for now)(diff) ← Previous revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff)Central Council of Homoeopathy (CCH) is a government of India institution set up under the Central Council of Homoeopathy Act 1973. Any university or similar institution in India offering either a degree or a diploma in homoeopathy can do so only if it is approved by CCH, apart from being listed under the schedules of the above mentioned act. The CCH also defines particular course curriculum and notifies benchmarks that need to be maintained by homoeopathy teaching institutions, apart from maintaining a central registry of all homoeopathy physicians in India.
In June 2008, a notice was issued to CCH by the Punjab and Haryana High Court when Sri Guru Nanak Dev Homeopathic College, Ludhiana, India, challenged the powers of the CCH in controlling intake into the college's homeopathic courses.
In 2007, the Union Health Ministry's set up the National Council for Clinical Establishments for "determine minimum standards" for clinical establishments. CCH became a formal member of this National Council.
