Guwahati: Baba Ramdev who is known for yoga and meditation, lost his cool after a journalist questioned him on the rising petrol prices.

Ramdev in 2014 said that if the government changed then the petrol prices will drop to Rs 40 in India. 

However, after the government changed from Congress to the BJP, the price kept on rising and as of March 31, 2022, the prices of petrol have crossed the Rs 100 mark across the country.

The question was raised by a reporter to Ramdev about what he has to say now that the prices did not drop. But, instead of answering the question, Ramdev was seen threatening the reporter.

Ramdev in a rude tone told the reporter, “I am not here to answer your questions. If you ask me the question again, it won’t be good.”

Ramdev went on to say, “I will not answer your question… Do whatever you want.”

Ramdev in a 2014 television interview said, “I have a study with me that says the basic price of petrol is only Rs 35, on which 50% tax is levied.”

Agar 50% ke jagah 1% tax ho jayga to it’s only practical. Itna arthshastra to humne bhi pad rakkha hai. [If taxes are reduced from 50% to 1%, (fuel price is bound to come down). I have studied this much economics”, he made a statement.
