Brief Summary   Title- A RANDOMIZED CONTROLLED CLINICAL TRIAL TO STUDY THE EFFECT OF MANDUKPANRNI CHURNA IN THE MANAGEMENT OF CHITTODVEGA WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO GENERALIZED ANXIETY DISORDER (GAD) 
Ayurveda views health as a balanced state of body, mind, senses, and soul, similar to the WHO concept of complete well-being. Chittodvega is a mental disorder described in Ayurveda that closely resembles Generalized Anxiety Disorder and arises due to imbalance of mental doshas (Rajas and Tamas). Ayurveda treats such conditions through a psychosomatic approach focusing on restoring mental and physical balance
NullHypothesis[H0]: Mandukparni choorna is not effective in the management of Chittodvega with special reference to Generalised Anxiety Disorder(GAD). 
 AlternateHypothesis[H1]:-Mandukparni choorna is effective in the managemen tof Chittodvega with special reference to Generalised Anxiety Disorder(GAD).
