Yoga is getting popular in Goa, a State that is known for its natural beauty, and very soon it will be a Yogabhoomi too, stated Chief Minister Dr Pramod Sawant while showing willingness to offer full support to Yoga Guru Ramdev Baba for the promotion of Yoga in the State.
Sawant was addressing the audience after giving away the Lokmanya Matrubhumi Puraskars in Panaji. The CEO of Patanjali Ayurved Saunstha, Haridwar, Acharya Balkrishna received the Lokmanya Matrubhumi Puraskar at the hands of the CM in the presence of Kiran Thakur, chairman of Lokmanya Multipurpose Society along with Union State Minister Shirpad Naik, Yoga Guru Ramdev Baba and Brahmeshanand Swami from Kundai Math.
Stating that Goa is a popular tourist destination, with great potential for spiritual as well as wellness tourism, Sawant mentioned, “Large scale Yoga activities are going on here. People are taking to Yoga, which is a must for taking India towards an ‘Atmanirbhar Bharat’. The Goa government is willing to offer the necessary support to Ramdev Baba to promote Yoga in the State.”
"Acharya Balakrishna is doing a great job at Patanjali Saunstha in Haridwar, doing research and documentation in Ayurvedic treatment procedures and I was fortunate to get an opportunity of learning the way this work is being done," said Sawant.
“I could study the research that is being carried out in Ayurveda since 1991. It is because of the immense efforts of Ramdev Baba and Acharya Balkrishna that Yoga is spreading speedily in the country. This can help in enhancing the health services, promote wellbeing and create employment opportunities too,” said the CM.
