Ramdev underscored how Patanjali mission aligns with the goals of the Bengal Engineer Group, emphasizing both organizations’ dedication to “engineering” a strong India—one through defense infrastructure and the other through “inner engineering” for personal wellness.
Acharya Balkrishna, the managing director of Patanjali, spoke of the shared vision of service to the nation. Just as the Indian Army instills patriotism and bravery, Patanjali inspires people to adopt a healthy lifestyle. They also emphasis to appreciate Indian heritage.
Balkrishna explained that Patanjali’s work goes beyond products. It fosters awareness about the benefits of yoga, Ayurveda, and a return to traditional practices. They, in turn, support self-reliance and national pride. Under his leadership, Patanjali has established centers across India and expanded into research. With this, they aim to blend ancient practices with modern science.
