Baba Ramdev interested to clean up Indian politics!
Baba Ramdev, the yoga guru, is interested to clean up the Indian political system without getting into the power.
He says, “I want to clean up the lives of politicians in the country through yoga and purge the political system of deadwood” through his preaching but will stay away from active politics.
“I have political ambition, but not for power. I want to change those who are in power. I hate the political system of the country. It paints such a negative image of the country abroad. The reins of the country should be in the hands of those who are transparent, humble, honest, farsighted and enterprising,” Ramdev had told IANS in an interview on June 1.
Since this interview people are aiming that Baba Ramdev is going to step in politics.
Baba Ramdev, an authority on ancient Indian yoga and traditional medicine said, “Politics has become a business. I want to see a Ram Raja, someone who is restrained and has a world view,” Ramdev said.
The interview has created a doubt about joining politics by Ramdev.
Ramdev also stressed on ayurveda and yoga to heal physical ailments. He said, “The country should stop spending Rs 15 trillion on allopathic medicines and switch to ayurveda and yoga to ensure a clean environment.”
Advising as a measure of population control, he said,” The government must reward couples who have one or two children and export the surplus population.”
Baba Ramdev became a global icon of Yoga and Ayurved. His pupils are not only in India but worldwide.
