Baba Ramdev Arrested, His Supporters Hunger Strike

Posted by org at 1:15 AM

With talks breaking down, police swooped down on Baba Ramdev a little past midnight 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. Soon after his detention, rumours spread thick and fast that Ramdev had been arrested. His followers said that the Baba was arrested and not detained.
However, the Delhi Police denied the claims, saying Ramdev was detained as he was leaving the site.
Meanwhile, Ramdev was flown to Dehradun from Delhi by a special plane after police swooped down on his hunger strike at the Ramlila Maidan in a mid-night operation.
