Our prime minister has taken the Ayush sector far ahead with his tireless efforts like creating an independent ministry and instilling a sense of respect for India in every person in the world through yoga," Sonowal said.

The people of India are united under “Ek Bharat Shreshtha Bharat” and the dream of a self-reliant India is definitely going to be fulfilled very soon, he said.
