Where Are You Mr. Prime Minister?

It's been more than 16 hours since the brutal crackdown took place on Baba Ramdev's Satyagraha.  We have seen Digvijay Singh, Kapil Sibal, Pawan Kumar Bansal, and Subodh Kant Sahay all coming out and justifying their barbaric act in the darkness of midnight.  Well, understood that India's Prime Minister is a busy man but is he so busy that when entire nation is beginning to involve in a nation-wide debate on people's freedom to protest, shouldn't we expect you to come at least once in front of India and tell us what you think of all that happened within the last 16 hours. Is he waiting for a volcano to explode or is he just testing the extent of the patience of common man?  Where are you, Mr. Prime Minister? Why are you sending out your representatives to come out and talk to media? 

We all Indians want to see you come in front and explain and justify whatever drama we have been seeing for the last three days.  We don't want to hear Mr. Kapil Sibal's skilled legal language, we don't want to hear Mr. Digvijay Singh's totally unethical language.  What we really want is that the Prime Minister and the Home Minister of India come forward in front of the nation and explain The Great Indian Tamasha that we have been seeing for the last three days.

What you think guys?  Am I asking for too much?

Baba Ramdev Is A Thug - Congress Thinks So

After last night mayhem in Ramlila Maidan resulting in the detention of Yoga Guru Baba Ramdev, Congress finally justified its action on the entire Satyagraha and very surprisingly (!!!) asked their fire-mouth Digvijay Singh to be their official spokesperson.  That means we can assume that whatever Digvijay Singh said reflects what our Prime Minister Mr. Manmohan Singh asked him to say.  So, why not our great PM himself or Congress President Sonia Gandhi Ji herself came in front of the media and said what Digvijay Singh said.

Anyway, Digvijay Singh openly termed Baba Ramdev as the biggest "Thug" and so the treatment had been rendered to him that a Thug deserves to get.  Now, this has opened a "Pandora Box" and have raised many a question that our Great Prime Minister ought to answer.

According to Digvijay Singh, Baba Ramdev has been cheating million of people around the globe for the last one decade in the name of yoga so there should be an inquiry established against him.  Now, my question is Sir, why you kept silent for the last one decade and let this man cheat million of people for one decade?  Why suddenly you felt the need today only to cry out against him?  Were you afraid of this Yogi throwing you out of the throne?  If he managed to amass thousands of crores of rupees in the last one decade, why you let this happen for one decade?  Why only today you woke up from your sleep?

Second question he raised that Baba Ramdev does not know any yoga and just fooling people by teaching them all "ulta pulta" yogasana.  Now, that is some serious allegation because Baba Ramdev is the biggest exponent of Yoga in Modern India after Swami Vivekananda and the entire world recognizes this. That means the Congress leaders are simply denying the very existence of Yoga which dates back to thousands of glorious Indian years.

Have they really gone out of their mind?  I don't know what happened in the midnight last night was correct or a blunder from the Congress leaders.  But, to put Digvijay Singh in front of the media to justify their action on Congress' behalf (Manmohan Singh and Sonia Gandhi), I think this is biggest blunder they have made or should I say they are committing a Harakiri.

I think the entire nation needs to participate in this debate if indeed Baba Ramdev is a Thug or if the Congress Party has become overconfident after their recent state assembly victories in Assam and Kerala that they can do anything and still can justify it.

Is Baba Ramdev a Thug?
