Dubbing the police action on “peaceful and unarmed” people at Baba Ramdev’s hunger strike as a “shameful” chapter in India’s democracy, BJP today accused Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Congress chief Sonia Gandhi of ordering the crackdown.
The party announced it would hold protests across the country against corruption and “police brutality” against Ramdev and his followers.
“The incident that took place yesterday at midnight at the Ramlila ground is one that has blemished democracy. Those people were protesting against corruption and black money through democratic means. But Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Sonia Gandhi ordered the atrocities on these people,” BJP President Nitin Gadkari said in Lucknow.
