New Delhi: Multi Million Ayurvedic products owner Ramdev, who has been a staunch supporter of the BJP for years now seems to have changed his stance as he slammed the Narendra Modi-led NDA government on Tuesday.
In an exclusive conversation with Aaj Tak, Ramdev said that a few BJP leaders have become arrogant after their landslide victory in 2014 Lok Sabha elections. Ramdev praised PM Narendra Modi, but he also emphasised that the central government should work to improve its anti farmer image. Watch Video
Quite surprisingly, Ramdev appreciated Rahul Gandhi’s efforts to revive the Congress party, which suffered a major setback in the 2014 Assembly elections. He appreciated Rahul Gandhi and said he has injected new life in congress. He said strong opposition is important for democracy. Opposition has succeeded in portraying govt as anti poor.
Besides the yoga guru also appreciated Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal and said he is doing good work. Ramdev and Kejriwal had earlier worked with anti-corruption crusader Anna Hazare.
On black money issue Ramdev said will wait till June and then decide on the future course of action.
On the Putrajeevak beej controversy, Ramdev said he welcomes any investigation. Taking a dig at KC Tyagi, Yoga Guru Baba Ramdev also said that if the JD(U) leader has a problem then he can try ‘Putrajeevak Beej’ and then he’ll surely become a father again.
