Yoga guru Ramdevs swadeshi messaging app called Kimbho that aims to take on WhatsApp and WeChat has suddenly disappeared from Google Play Store.

The app is still available for iPhones and iPads on the App Store.

Several people who tried to download the app from Play Store were amused at its sudden disappearance.

Kimbho is a Sanskrit word and according to Patanjais spokesperson SK Tijarawala, it means How are you? or Whats new?

Now Bharat will speak. After launching sim cards, Ramdev has launched a new messaging application called Kimbho, Tijarawala tweeted late on Wednesday.

Now WhatsApp will be given a competition. Our own #SwadeshiMessagingplatform. Download it directly from Google Play store, he added.

According to Faisal Kawoosa, Head New Initiatives, CyberMedia Research, it will not be easy for Kimbho to create a space dominated by WhatsApp for just on being Swadeshi.
