Ramdev joins politics, claims to 'cleanse' system
Yoga guru Baba Ramdev marked his entry into politics on Tuesday in New Delhi by launching his own political party, which he claimed would cleanse the political system.
\"Next Lok Sabha elections will have candidates from Bharat Swabhimaan contesting elections in all 545 Lok Sabha seats,\" said Baba Ramdev in New Delhi.
Ramdev said he planned to enroll 7 to 10 lakh members in every parliamentary constituency of the country. The members would act as a corrective force and decide who was elected to Parliament from that particular constituency.
However, the yoga guru said that he would not contest elections or accept any political post.
He also added that India would become a superpower soon if black money stashed away by Indians in foreign bank accounts was brought back.
...
He also slammed Mayawati for accepting the multi-crore garland during a Bahujan Samaj party rally in Lucknow on Tuesday.
People like Mayawati are always worried. The country’s wealth should be used for betterment of Dalits and poor, and should not to be used as garlands to decorate the neck,” he said.
So how far can he go in Politics?
I thought BJP was natural choice for him to join Politics.
