Baba Ramdev plays politics...


Baba Ramdev ji ki jai ho, baba Randev ji ki jai ho yaa Na ho??

Let us see.


Folks have you seen the news on Baba Ramdev ji, coming consecutively since last two days, on TV channels or in newspapers. If your answer is in positive, then by now you must have guessed that on what thing I will go and talk about. But, if you say no then I must inform you about the latest buzz. Okay, here I go. Baba Ramdev ji is so paranoid (personally my opinion) about his future in yoga teachings that he is now planning to enter in politics (Or he is been too bored of cleaning bodies of people that he now decides to clean the country’s mess). I do not know.

Personally saying Baba Ramdev ji has done an immensely wonderful job to bring yoga out of oblivion and making it so popular. It is beyond doubt that he is a great yoga teacher and made his teaching sessions free for all – which is a mark of great guru. But his news of entry into politics is certainly not appreciable. Ramdev ji you are such a good yoga teacher, then why do not you go and popularize it in the whole world, so that people who are suffering from deadly diseases around the world can took benefit of it and be cured. It is also a noble deed. Why getting into politics? Let it be the game of Sonia Gandhi, Manmohan Singh or Lal Krishna Advani. Why form a new party, when there is no dearth of political regional parties in India. I am not saying that forming a new party is bad but why you in politics. There is already so much responsibilities on your shoulder –popularizing yoga (remember I mentioned it earlier).

Country as complex as ours demands someone having a stature as dynamic as of Dr. Manmohan Singh or Mr Nitish Kumar or Mr Narendar Modi. They are well adept in their field of expertise. How can we expect a man who lack experience in the field of politics to run a political party or to have a say in framing a national policies. He may also, in all possibilities, can get a good number of votes – for 85 million people follow his yoga camps and after all devotes will be devotes that they will faithfully vote for his party. Not to mention, with keeping their brains shut. If babaji can claim for in Toto eradication of corruption from India then for God sake why he gets into controversies concerning corruption - Allegations of unlawful manufacturing practices (use human and animal bones in their medicines), Claims of curing AIDS, Claims of curing cancer. Some of the issues raised by him (where you decide whether it is justified..?) are: division of Uttar Pradesh into 3 parts, Opposition to Homosexuality. Also, some of the goals stated in his Bharat Swabhiman Andolan, a mass movement campaign launched by him, are quite conservative - 100% boycott of foreign companies, adoption of ‘swadeshi’, 100% yoga-oriented nation, We will 100% boycott foreign goods made with zero technology and adopt indigenous goods.

Baba Ramdev ji we respect you. We appreciate you for what you have done(giving a ray of hope to those who suffers from some of the very painful illness). We are proud of you. But I will truly demand from you that you please be focused in your yoga teachings. Let politics be the game of others.


Baba Ramdev ji ki jai ho, Baba Ramdev ji ki jai ho yaa na ho..you decide
