It seems another spell of 'acche din' has begun for Baba Ramdev. It has been reported that the Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (YEIDA) may allot 750 acres of land along the expressway, to the yoga guru.

According to a Hindustan Times report, the land will be allotted to Ramdev's Patanjali Yogpeeth for industrial and institutional use. It is suggested that Ramdev will set up a naturopathy centre on 400 acres of land, an industrial unit on 300 acres and and an international university on the remaining 50 acres.

The university will reportedly be a one-of-its-kind educational institute that will be set up in the next five years. The promoters claim it will offer education that is a blend of Western and Eastern schools of thought.

According to the report, the land selected for the project is in Sector 24 near Kadalpur village and is located on an 120-metre wide road which is connected with the Yamuna e-way. It is around four kilometres away from the Buddh International Circuit (BIC).
