According to Patanjali officials, Ramdev had received a request from the London museum for a statue a few months back. It required persuasion to some extent before he agreed to the proposal.
Ramdev’s statue will join a long list of world-renowned figures from the fields of politics, sports, entertainment etc which are already inside the museum which attracts thousands of visitors each year. Among renowned Indian personalities to have their statues here are Mahatma Gandhi, Amitabh Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan, Aishwarya Rai and many more.
