Yes, BAMS or BHMS graduates can pursue pediatric specializations within their own medical systems, such as Kaumarbhritya (Ayurvedic pediatrics) or Homeopathic Pediatrics. These are separate from allopathic pediatrics.
However, they cannot pursue MD Pediatrics (Allopathy) or practice as allopathic pediatricians unless they earn an MBBS degree and meet the eligibility criteria set by NMC or other regulatory bodies.
