Baba Ramdev should use a political platform if he wants to indulge in politics, Information and Broadcasting Minister Ambika Soni said here on Thursday.
“Baba Ramdev has taught yoga across the country and that is the basis of his popularity. When he share the dias with people who are known to have divided the country in the name of religion, then you can only imagine what goes on in the mind of the common man.
“Those who want to indulge in politics should use a political platform,” Ms. Soni said when asked to comment on the yoga guru’s indefinite fast on the issue of black money.
Madam, 
I am an apolitical citizen and do not appreciate the Flip-Flop Ramdev's dramatics or trivialisation of Corruption & Black Money by the political parties.
This rigmarole is being repeated by all Goebbelss of Congress to the divert public attention from the core issue of bringing back the Black Money stashed away, abroad as well as ferreting out that which is still in India.
I also strongly condemn the act of demolition of Babri Masjid.
I still hold whether they are in jail or out, being still citizens of India, have not a right but responsibility to demand some action on the above discussed core issue, that has been the gangrene of India.
Congress and / or its allies do not have 'licencing powers' to grant on who could raise voice or not on issues of National importance.
Your own party was not averse to roping in for electoral campaigns or even admitting celebrities into your party.
Finally, stop competing with BJP in trivialising this crucial issue of our National Importance and let us know what is your Party's and UPA Government's stand on the all pervading corruption at all levels and planes.
