Haridwar, Feb 18 : Nepalese President Rambaran Yadav has said Ayurveda and Yoga would play an important role in strengthening the bilateral relations between India and Nepal.

Mr Yadav, who was here to take a holy dip in the river Ganga as a part of his Kumbh Mela pilgrimage yesterday, visited Yogaguru Baba Ramdev's Patanjali Yogapeetham.

After a meeting with Baba Ramdev, Mr Yadav said India and Nepal have many similarities in culture, language and society.

''India is the largest democracy of the world whereas Nepal is a newly-born democracy. The himalayan nation has many expectations from India,'' he said.

He assured all help in setting up of a Patanjali Yogapeeth in Nepal. A branch of Baba's Peeth is already functioning in Nepal but with the help of the government the Peeth wants to expand its activities. Baba's organisation intends to work towards promoting ayurvedic research and treatment in the hilly nation.
