A tough-talking Government today justified Baba Ramdev’s eviction from Ramlila grounds in the wee hours, accusing him of going back on his word to end the fast and pursuing his “political agenda”.
Hours after 46-year-old Ramdev was bundled out to Dehradun after he was picked up by the police in a pre-dawn swoop, government also firmly ruled out any further talks with the yoga guru on the demands raised by him.
“There is nothing left to discuss (with Ramdev). On what issue we will talk. Whatever talks had to happen have already happened,” Union Minister Subodhkant Sahay, involved in negotiations with the yoga guru, told reporters here.
Highly-placed government sources said the decision to remove Ramdev from the agitation site was taken at 5 PM on Saturday when it became clear that he was not going to end his fast as promised by him.
