Republic Day 2024 LIVE updates: Agra's Homeopathic doctor on prestigious Padma Shri
Republic Day 2024 LIVE updates: Dr.RS Pareek, a renowned homeopathic practitioner based in Agra, Uttar Pradesh, has been conferred with the prestigious Padma Shri Award.
Expressing his gratitude and joy, Dr Pareek said, “This Padma Shri is not just a prestigious national award; it is a symbol of honor and recognition for the practice of homeopathy. When I initially pursued homeopathy, it was not a widely known or respected field of study. The scenario has drastically changed over the years, and I am elated to see homeopathy gaining the acknowledgment it deserves.”
Reflecting on his journey, Pareek reminisced about the time when he began his studies in homeopathy and said it was a field often overlooked. "There was a time when no one knew or recognized the practice of homeopathy. It wasn't a respected field of study, and the awareness was limited. However, I remained steadfast in my commitment to this alternative healing system, driven by the belief in its efficacy."
