Ramdev hand-in-glove with RSS, BJP?
Baba Ramdev is apparently carrying forward senior BJP leader, Mr L.K. Advani’s agenda against the stashing of black money abroad. It was senior BJP leader, Mr L.K. Advani, who in 2008 demanded that the black money stashed abroad should be brought back “as urgently as possible.”
Sources also disclosed that a section of RSS leadership was in constant touch with Baba Ramdev’s close aides, during his negotiations with the government during the past 48 hours.
The swayamsevaks have been asked to reach the national capital on Saturday to make Ramdev’s agitation a “grand success,” sources disclosed.
Moreover, Baba Ramdev, who on Friday claimed that no “Swayamsevak will participate in his fast unto death” slated to begin from Saturday at the Ramlila ground, has been closely associated with the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh. Ramdev has been a regular figure at virtually all the RSS functions including those at Nagpur, the Sangh headquarters.
A few months back he had also shared the dais with Mr Advani at a “colourful function held at Sri Krishna Dham by his disciple, Uma Bharati, to celebrate the birthday of Swami Vishvesh Teertha Maharaj of Pejawar Mutt,” according to the RSS mouthpiece, Organiser. Mr Advani, swadeshi ideologue K.N. Govindacharya and VHP general secretary Pravin Togadia were present at the occasion.
Recently, RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat, extended full support to Baba Ramdev. The RSS chief was quoted as saying in the RSS mouthpiece: “ You continue with yoga and yogya and we will see that no demon harm it.” Ramdev has also been carrying out most of the RSS agenda which includes save Ganga plan.
It may also be recalled that it was the RSS, which came in full support of Baba Ramdev when the CPI(M) politburo member Ms Brinda Karat alleged that Ramdev’s medicine contained animal parts and human skull. The Organiser in its editorial wrote: “What is Brinda Karat’s expertise on medicines?...”
