This monograph is based on the medicinal plants of Ladakh used in the traditional system of medicine in the Northern part of India, which consists of the Leh and Kargil districts. The medicinal plants described in this book are based on the survey work conducted with the financial support of the Ministry of AYUSH Government of India.
