Baba Ramdev loses cool when reporter asks about his statements on petrol prices hike during UPA Govt
Says, Chup Ho Ja, Aage Se Puchega Toh Theek Nai Hoga
New Delhi: Yoga Guru and Businessman Baba Ramdev on Wednesday snapped at a media reporter who asked him about his statements during the UPA government on the issue of hikes in Petrol and LPG prices.
In a video that is doing rounds on social media site Twitter, the reporter can be heard pointing to Ramdev his statement and media bytes that he gave during the UPA government regime.
“You asked people whether they want a government that will bring down petrol prices to 40 and LPG prices to Rs. 300 or if they want a government that is selling petrol at 75. What do you have to say now?” the reporter asked Ramdev.
Irked by the question, Ramdev tried to dodge the reporter and moved on to another question from a different reporter. When the reporter continued asking the same question Ramdev lost his cool and snapped at the reporter.
“Yes I gave byte then, I won’t give any byte about it now. What will you do? Will you tear my tail for that? He asked the reporter.
When the reporter did not stop, Ramdev said “Chup Ho Ja, Aage Se Puchega Toh Theek Nai Hoga” (Shut up, if you ask again, it won’t be good for you)

17,969 acres Wakf property encroached in Karnataka, mostly by Muslims: Minister Khan
Bengaluru (PTI): Karnataka Minister for Wakf & Minority Welfare B Z Zameer Ahmed Khan told the Legislative Assembly on Monday that 17,969 acres of Wakf property have been encroached upon in the state, mostly by Muslims themselves.
The minister was responding to a question by Afzalpur Congress MLA M Y Patil during the Question Hour.
"Total Wakf property across the state is 1,12,860 acres, out of which only 20,054 acres is in our hands. As many as 17,969 acres have been encroached, 47,263 acres have gone under the Inam Abolition Act and 23,627 acres have gone under the Land Reforms Act," Khan said.
He said that after the Congress government came to power and he became the department's minister, Wakf Adalats were held across the state aimed at removing encroachments.
Noting that 1,12,860 acres of Wakf land were given not by the government, but by private individuals and organisations for the welfare of the community, the minister said encroachments on Wakf property are mostly by the Muslim community itself, not by temples or other communities.
"Encroachments on Wakf land are not by others, they are done by Muslims themselves. Wakf Adalats were held to remove those encroachments, but the BJP made it an issue," he said, adding that encroachment issues are being resolved.
Leader of Opposition R Ashoka intervened and said the BJP's objections were not about removing encroachments by Muslims on Wakf land, but about farmers' land, land belonging to schools such as the one studied by Bharat Ratna Sir M Visvesvaraya, and in some cases land belonging to temples, among others, being claimed as Wakf land.
The BJP is in fact in favour of an investigation into the encroachment of Wakf properties, he said.
Responding to this, the minister clarified that the government is not laying hands on any temples or educational institutions by claiming them as Wakf property.
"To identify encroachments by private people, mostly Muslims, Wakf Adalats were held," he added.
