I see 'Indianness' in Priyanka Gandhi: Ramdev

April 28, 2016 23:02

Yoga guruBaba Ramdev, who is a known supporter of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, has said that he sees a lot of 'Indianness' in Congress president Sonia Gandhi's daughter Priyanka Gandhi Vadra.

"I see Indianness in Priyanka. But Sonia is a staunch Catholic. There may be ideological differences with Sonia or she might have been misled by her advisors," he said in an exclusive interview to ETV News Network head Jagdish Chandra.

Ramdev said he had predicted six months before the 2014 general election that the NDA will come to power with the support of nearly 300 seats under Modi's leadership.

On Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi, he told Chandra on ETV's popular 'The J C Show' that, "Rahul Gandhi has had a lot of opportunities. I want Rahul to be a strong opposition. Then only, can the government move in the right direction in a democracy."
