Bengaluru, 6 April 2012: The ‘Healthcare Professional of the Decade’ award was today conferred on Padma Shri Dr Mukesh Batra, Founder & CMD, Dr Batra's™ Positive Health Clinic Pvt. Ltd., at the 3rd Annual India Leadership Conclave & Indian Affairs Business Leadership Awards 2012, hosted by Indian Affairs magazine in association with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs, at Hotel Lalit in Bengaluru.

An eminent jury comprising of Network 7 Media Group Chairman, Satya Brahma, Infosys Co-Founder and Chairman, N. R. Narayana Murthy and Chairman Bajaj Group, Rahul Bajaj declared Dr. Batra the winner in the ‘Healthcare Professional of the Decade’ category.

While accepting the honour bestowed on him, Dr. Mukesh Batra said, "I am truly humbled. I thank the organizers immensely for recognizing homeopathy, the world's second-largest medical system. As you would all know, during the past decade, homeopathy has expanded its reach and is growing from strength to strength in India and across the world. It is, in fact, fast becoming the first choice of treatment for an increasing number of people. That it is also growing at an annual rate of almost 30% in India augurs well for safe, effective and affordable holistic healthcare and wellness."

Padma Shri Dr. Mukesh Batra also delivered the inaugural address on ‘Globalization of Indian Brands’ at the awards ceremony, which was attended by more than 200 industry stalwarts from diverse sectors across the country. The theme of the 2012 annual leadership conclave was ‘Brand India – The Emerging Superpower, Limitless Leadership, Limitless Possibilities’.

Dr. Mukesh Batra first began his medical practice from a modest, single clinic in Mumbai in 1982. Today, Dr Batra's™ Positive Health Clinics, the company founded by Dr. Batra, is the world's largest homeopathic healthcare corporate, with a network of 89 clinics, spread across 34 cities in India, Dubai and UK. The Company in India is ISO 9001:2008 certified from the American Quality Assessors (AQA).

Dr Batra's™ is a recipient of a host of awards and honours.
