Ramdev targets MPs again

May 07, 2012 23:18

Yoga guru Ramdev today continued his tirade against Members of Parliament, terming some of them as "corrupt, amoral and murderers". "Some of the MPs sitting in Parliament are corrupt, amoral and murderers. People should not elect such persons to the nation's highest body," he said addressing a gathering at a yoga camp here in the presence of Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan.

In another controversial statement, the yoga guru, addressing a meeting yesterday at Porsa town, had said "dacoits have been promoted and now they have come out of forests and reached Delhi." "People should not elect such persons to Lok Sabha and Vidhan Sabha." He later today visited revolutionary leader Ram Prasad Bismil's ancestral village Barvai and paid tributes to him. Ramdev charged people are facing a lot of problems because of inflation and the government is not doing anything to provide relief to them.
