Will Baba Ramdev repeat Chanakya?
Baba Ramdev is aiming to develop the country by attaining political power. But the million dollar question being asked is whether he will succeed? He wants the country to attain its old glory and become super power.
SWAMI RAMDEV, yoga guru who has been hitting the media headlines for his yoga teachings, now-a-days, is again in the news, but this time not because of yoga. His announcement of contesting in the coming Lok Sabha polls by floating political party is being discussed in political as well as media circles. Intelligence bureau, multinational companies and foreign powers are watching his activities.
 

Centuries ago, our country was facing social and political turmoil during the rule of Nandvansh and people were unhappy with the style and functioning of rulers. Chanakya, acharya of gurukul was keenly watching the developments. His heart was bleeding for the welfare of common people but was unable to do anything due to anti people attitude of the rulers. He took oath to destroy anti people kingdom and his tireless efforts resulted in formation of the kingdom of Chandragupata. Rest is a part of history as the dynasty ruled the country for long serving the masses. Besides, Chanakya’s efforts have checked the entry of foreign invaders. He united the country.

Baba Ramdev is also aiming the same by attaining political power. But the million dollar question being asked is whether he will succeed in repeating Chankaya? He wants the country to attain its old glory and become super power.

The situation is similar as was during Chanakya regime. Political corruption is at its peak. People are poor and unemployed. A larger section is unable to manage two square meal. Health care and education is beyond the reach of common people. Human Resources Minister Kapil Sibbal has urged the big business houses to open universities for which government will give liberal loans.

 
It is shocking that Ambani presents jet to his wife on her birthday and a poor lady carrying her new born baby in her laps, work for the whole day in scorching heat for a meager amount. The growing influence of Maoists as indication of the unrest is prevailing in the country. Baba Ramdev faces several hurdles in his mission.
 
Caste, region, religion, multinational companies and foreign powers will create hurdles in his mission. Admittedly present rulers cutting across party lines instead of serving the people serve big businessmen. Holy scripture Ramayana says that ‘Jis raja nahi praja swari vo raja hai nark adhikari’ meaning thereby that the king who do not care for his people deserves hell. Hindu kings Ashoka and Chandragupata were all for the welfare of the people. Mahatma Gandhi also advocated for ethics in politics.

Now let us discuss the challenges before Baba Ramdev. Undoubtedly yoga teachings has popularised him all over the coutnry. A large number of people could be seen practicing pranayam in public parks. Media is also giving him full attention. A national English daily devoted him a full page. He was also invited at the recent conclave of India Today where he spoke on sex and spirituality, free and gay sex with authority quoting scientific and religious instances to justify his point of view. When Brinda Karat criticised him for using human bones in medicines prepared by his Patanjali Ashram then Lalu Prasad Yadav, Mulaym Singh Yadav and the entire Bharatiya Janata Party defended him. But at that time, he did not show any intentions of joining politics. How politicians and parties relish the idea of others encroaching their field.


Although he has established his credibility by giving relief to people through his yoga teachings yet his opponents accuse him of building an empire. Vote bank politics based on caste, region and religion, foreign powers and multinational companies are hurdles in his mission. Besides he lacks a team although he is recruiting members thorugh his Bharat Swabiman Trust. During the time of Chanakya there was no influence of cast and religion. But now after Mandal and Kamandal and Ram Temple and Babri mosque issue, voters have polarised on caste and religious lines. Baba says that dalits need meals not statues but the question is whether they will prefer him or his candidates over Mayawati. Admittedly Baba is above these considerations but do the voters also think on the same lines. Multinational companies dealing in medicines will also make all out efforts to block his mission.


Now, Mayawati and Lalu Yadav have turned against him. Even BJP has cautioned him for announcing his mission at early stage.

.yoga guru Ramdev is getting taste of dirty indian politcs, His friend Lalu has turned his foe andhad advised him to concentrte on yoga teachings insteadof poltics. lalu claimed that he had saved Baba from controversy of having animal bones in medicines.Like a shrewd polticianBab has refused to join issue with lalu.Lalu,s loss has been compensated with entry of Jethamalani,swami, Bedi , Khernar etc.

.This is the shittiest artice published EVER. baba ramdev is NO WHERE NO WHERE NO WHERE near to chanakya.
.agar ramdev ka experience bhi fail ho gaya to fir desh me maovadei hi ayege.
.Congress the Italian Mafioso backed party needs to be thrown out. It's time we get back to Indian roots rather than Ape a imported culture where it's Junk Everything -- Junk Food, Junk Sex, Junk Parents, Junk Kids. Stated in short, Congress is synonymous with Corruption, Risiing Prices, Stock Market Ghotalas and besides the point that they are supporting MUSLIMS and Christians at expense of Hindues. This has been their history right from that "Universal Uncle" Nehru and a NRI politician who all call Gandhi the BAPU. He was the real PAAP U

BAAPU has planned may good things , which even Ramdev recommends .. But some people around BAPU were too selfish.. BAPU has done more good to nation then bad... We should respect BAPU , Congress Govt didnt follow even a single recommendation from BAPU dats caused our downfall . So ..
.he will surely make Bharat a Sone ki chidiyaa again.
.Ramdev tum age bado desh ki nojwan peeedi aapke saath hai. ek agrah bhi hai.apni dwaiya ka rate kam kar do
.I am convinced this mission is going to succeed. Just the 3% percent of the corrupt people cannot rule 93% of the people forever. People need pure, patriotic, selfless leaders which Baba id raising through Bharat Swabhiman Andolan. The battle ground of Mahabharata was Kurukshetra when the demonic forces were crushed in the guidance of Krishna. This time the battle ground will be the 2014 elections and the demonic forces will be defeated. This will be a bloodless war and the march is towards the Parliament and throw away the dynastic rulers of today.
.He will make it , I can feel it in the public or my area ..He is the demand of India ... People of all religion and cast are his devotees and people are working day and night .. THE POWER OF VOTE IS MUCH MORE THEN RELIGION < CAST < MNC... Jai Hind
