Mandi, June 4
Baba Ramdev’s anti-corruption satyagraha launched from the Ramlila Ground in New Delhi today received a good response here mainly from the Sangh Parivar, Arya Samaj and NGOs as they joined strike at the Chandni Manch. However, the Congress and its frontal organisations, the CPI and the CPM, kept off from it.
It also received a good response from the RSS, VHP, BJP and other saffron organisations and NGOs, who have earlier supported the similar Anna Hazare’s indefinite fast in support of the Lokpal Bill against corruption.
BJP leaders from Mandi Sadar like Kanhiya Lal and Dr Raju and others joined the strike against corruption.
Left-supported anganwari workers staged a rally in support of their demands and submitted a memorandum to the DC.
“Twenty members (yoga gurus) of the organisation began their fast and at least 40 members will be participating at the chain fast. At least 1,200 members were present in the support of Ramdev’s fight against corruption,” said Jagdev Thakur, district coordinator and district president of Bharat Swabhimaan.
Thakur and other members echoed that the stir was not against any party or any political person but Baba has started satyagraha against the corrupt and seeks to bring back the black money.
The organisation recommended the government to stop printing Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 notes to curb corruption. “The stir will continue till the government fulfils our demands in writing,” said the district coordinator.
In Dharamsala around 1,500 (till 5 pm) persons supported the agitation on day one by participating in the signature campaign.
