Baba Ramdev to fill the void created by the ouster of Maggi noodles

Yes, a news item has emerged in the media that Yoga Guru Baba Ramdev has indicated that his Patanjali setup would bring out an alternative to Maggi noodles by the year end. That way, the foreign label would vanish and it would be a product that will bear the mark of ‘Made in India’.
This has been reported in newsnation.in dated 8 June 2015.

The health hazards connected to the consumption of the Maggi brand of 2-minute noodles have hogged the limelight for the last few days and lab tests are being conducted in various laboratories to ascertain the extent of damage that has been done to children and adults alike. Needless to say, its makers Nestle are in a fix as are a few celebrities who have endorsed the product.
Incidentally, Baba Ramdev has plans to bring into the market other products that will gradually do away with products like Complan, Horlicks and Bournvita. He also has plans to add hair dye and gel to the list.
Hopefully, if the quality of these products come up to international standards, there could be a huge export market which could transform into dollars.
