Abstract (2. Language): 
Ayurveda is a system of Indian traditional form of alternative medicine. In 20th and 21 are becoming aware of the potency and side effect of synthetic drugs and so there is an increasing interest in Ayurvedic proprietary medicine. But the adulteration and substitution of the herbs is the burning problem in herbal industry and it has caused a major treat in the research on commercial natural products. The deforestation and extinction of many species and incorrect identification of many plants has resulted in adulteration and substitution of raw drugs. The future development of t analysis of herbs is largely depended upon reliable methodologies for correct identification, standardization and quality assurance of Ayurvedic drugs.
