Bihar to have Ramdev as brand ambassador

Patna: Impressed by yoga guru Ramdev's efforts to arouse within Biharis the urge to attain total fitness, the State Government has decided to appoint him the brand ambassador of Bihar.

"I have requested Swami Ramdev to become Bihar's brand ambassador and he has not turned down my request," Chief Minister Nitish Kumar told reporters after the yoga guru met him on the concluding day of the week-long `yoga vigyan shivir' here.

Lauded for 'awakening the people'

Mr. Kumar lauded Ramdev for "awakening the people of Bihar" and his endeavour to make them "fearless individuals."

Ramdev extolled the "hardworking Biharis" to join in the development of the country and several other nations which they have made their home.

It is, however, not yet known what the responsibilities of Ramdev would be as brand ambassador. — PTI
