Ramdev targets UPA, asks PM to deliver to nation's expectation

New Delhi, Aug 14 (ANI): Yoga Guru Baba Ramdev on Tuesday criticized Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh-led UPA Government for not meeting the expectations of people of the country.
Terming the ruling Congress Party to be isolated, Baba Ramdev said the UPA Government has lost the trust of the people of this country.
"The people are the real strength of a revolution. This Central Government has lost the confidence of the people Congress is responsible for making the poor poorer," he said.
Baba Ramdev also criticized Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh for not raising his voice on the black money issue.
"Prime Minister, tomorrow is Independence Day. If you don't speak on black money and corruption, then you are as guilty as those who are corrupt," he said.
Baba Ramdev said that his agitation is over, but the movement will continue. He reiterated that he was not having a political agenda.
"We are leaving because we have won and not because we have lost. Our agitation is over, but the movement will continue. We are leaving not because we have lost, but because we have won. We are not beggars, we are asking for the rights of our country. And if we don't get it, we will fight for it," said Baba Ramdev.
"We haven't asked for a separate country, we haven't even asked for a village like the Pandavas. We have just asked for our rights. If we wanted, we could have stopped the Prime Minister from hoisting the flag on Independence Day. The Congress has written its name on the top of the list of corrupt," he added.
He claimed to have the support of the Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP), Samajwadi Party (SP) and the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) on the black money issue.
"Mulayam Singh, Mayawati, NCP have supported my campaign against black money. Take these parties out and the government will collapse. If there would have been a vote on black money yesterday in parliament, this government would have to go yesterday itself," he said.
Delhi Police earlier made a fresh appeal to the yoga guru and his supporters to vacate the Ambedekar Stadium citing security concerns ahead of Independence Day.
"We have had talks with Swamiji. We have made arrangements for you (Ramdev and supporters) to move," said Additional CP Devesh Srivastava.
Baba Ramdev, who has been fasting since August 9 against corruption, black money and for 'vyavastha parivartan' (systemic change), had earlier ignored the request of the Delhi Police and spent the night at the capital's Ambedkar Stadium.
The yoga guru had earlier declared that he would take his ongoing protest on black money and corruption to Parliament and vowed to oust Congress in the next Lok Sabha polls.

SIP Mutual Funds: A Complete Guide to the Best Options

  What is a SIP? A SIP (Systematic Investment Plan) is a method of investing in mutual funds. Instead of investing a large lump sum all at once, you invest a fixed, smaller amount at regular intervals, such as monthly or quarterly. It's similar to a recurring deposit in a bank. For example, instead of investing a lump sum of ₹10,000, you could invest ₹1,000 every month for ten months. Benefits of a SIP Rupee Cost Averaging: Investing through a SIP helps you navigate market volatility. You buy fewer units when the market price is high and more units when the market price is low. Over time, this averages out the cost of your investment. Power of Compounding: By investing consistently over a long period, the returns on your investments are reinvested, generating further returns. This allows your wealth to grow exponentially over time. Financial Discipline: A SIP encourages a disciplined approach to saving and investing by automatically deducting a fixed amount from your bank accou...

Bal Thackeray life history

Views on Bal Thackeray, known as Balasaheb, were as polarised as the politics he practiced.  Known for his caustic tongue, he was idolised by his followers in the Shiv Sena and scorned in equal measure by liberal and secular Indians for his communal, divisive politics that didn't stop with radical expression of views against Muslims and violent action against those opposed to his extreme righwing ideas - including being firmly opposed to the visit of the Pakistani cricket team to India. The cartoonist turned politician was often portrayed as a roaring tiger, the much cherished logo of his party Shiv Sena, which he formed to accord dignity to Maharashtrians but which became known as a party of restless youngsters out for trouble. He was a demogogue whose strong views polarised the polity at the state and the national level, but he never flinched from expressing himself with conviction despite opposition. The posterboy of rightwing Hindu and Marathi chau...
