New Delhi: Yoga guru Baba Ramdev on Monday appealed to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to not repeat the Ramlila Maidan crackdown incident with social activist Anna Hazare during his fast beginning on August 16.
In a letter to the Prime Minister, Ramdev also wrote that he hopes that the government will take concrete steps to bring back the black money stashed abroad.
Security forces swooped down on Ramdev a little past midnight on June 5 and detained him after firing tear gas shells and resorting to lathicharge on his supporters to end his day-old indefinite hunger strike on black money issue.
Ramdev said he hopes the incident is not repeated with Anna Hazare.
Team Anna has decided to go ahead with their August 16 fast, despite being denied permission by the Delhi Police. They said that they will court arrest if need be.
Here is the full text of the letter written by Ramdev to the Prime Minister:
