• On this occasion, a “Status Report of NMPB 2020” and “Ayur-veg” e-book were also released.
• The National Medicinal Plants Board (NMPB) has completed two decades of its existence.

National Medicinal Plants Board (NMPB)

• It was 24th November 2000, that the then Department of AYUSH joined hands with the Ministry of Environment and Forest, Department of Scientific and Industrial Research, Department of Biotechnology and Department of Agricultural Research and Education to form the National Medicinal Plants Board (NMPB).
• The Board, today, is an integral unit of the Ministry of AYUSH with the aforesaid Ministries and Departments offering consultations and support, and it exercises oversight on medicinal plants sector.
• NMPB’s main objective is the development of medicinal plants sector through developing a strong coordination between the stakeholders i.e., farmers, traders, and manufacturers benefiting each of them.
• The endeavor would increase the income and livelihood of the farmers and tribes. 

Voluntary Certification Scheme for Medicinal Plants Production (VCSMPP)

• It has been an important achievement of NMPB.
• The scheme, designed with the support of the Quality Council of India, encourages good practices among farmers in the matter of cultivation, field collection and maintaining quality of the medicinal plants products.
• This certification is, in many ways, a form of quality assurance, and it has resulted in easy marketing and export of medicinal plants products.

Hence both statements are correct.
