      <Abstract>Hantaviruses are high-consequence, zoonotic negative-sense single-stranded RNA pathogens that pose a critical public health challenge worldwide, precipitating conditions such as Hemorrhagic Fever with Renal Syndrome (HFRS) and Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome (HPS). In the absence of universally approved, targeted synthetic post-entry antiviral treatments, exploration of natural products presents an invaluable avenue for candidate discovery. This research paper evaluates the therapeutic potential of Indian medicinal plants against Hantavirus targets by drawing structural and functional parallels from established plant-based interactions across key viral families__ampersandsignmdash;namely Retroviridae (HIV/AIDS), Herpesviridae (HSV), Orthomyxoviridae (Influenza), and Hepadnaviridae/ Flaviviridae (Viral Hepatitis). Building upon the classical methodological blueprints of ethnobotanical screening, we map the bioactivity of secondary metabolites endemic to Indian flora, such as Azadirachta indica, Phyllanthus emblica, Glycyrrhiza glabra, Tinospora cordifolia</Abstract>
