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