The Ministry of Indigenous Medicines opened the second Ayurveda Research Hospital of Sri Lanka at Siribopura, Hambantota recently.

This will be converted to a fully fledged Ayurveda Research Hospital. Nurses will be enrolled for the hospital and the trainee nurses will be given appointments for a period of three years, reported Daily News.

3500 applications have already been received but only 50 will be selected for training at the initial stage.
