All India and State Homoeopathic Associations had been supporting the formation of Central Council of Homoeopathy in various Congresses. The Central Council of Health, therefore, constituted a Sub-Committee in October, 1967. |

| Accordingly, the Bill for Indian Medicine and Homoeopathy Central Council was introduced in the Rajya Sabha on 17-12-1968. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
A joint committee of parliament considered the bill. The exponents of Homoeopathy and also the experts of the three systems of Indian Medicine, viz., Ayurveda, Unani and Siddha represented before the committee that the basic concepts of Indian Medicine were different from the fundamentals of Homoeopathy and, therefore, a separate council of Homoeopathy was needed.. The committee recommended for preparation of a separate bill for Homoeopathy and drafted a Bill on similar lines for introduction in parliament. |

Accordingly, The Homoeopathic Central Council Bill was drafted and was introduced in the Rajya Sabha on 3rd April, 1972. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
A Statutory Central Council on the lines of the Medical Council of India of the modern system of medicine is a prerequisite for the proper growth & development of Homoeopathy. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The main functions of the Central Council of Homoeopathy would be to evolve uniform standards of education in Homoeopathy and the registration of practitioners of Homoeopathy. The registration of practitioners on the Central Register of Homoeopathy will ensure that medicine is not practised by those who are not qualified in this system, and those who practise, observe a code of ethics in the profession. The Bill is intended to achieve these objectives". |
