NEW DELHI: Election season, it appears, is also the season to make ridiculous remarks. The latest in a long list of people who have made irresponsible and disgusting statements against political rivals is Baba Ramdev.
Ramdev has sparked off an unseemly controversy saying that Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi goes to Dalit houses for picnics and honeymoon.
During a press conference in Lucknow, the self-proclaimed yoga guru attacked Rahul Gandhi's 'single' status saying that Rahul wanted to marry a foreigner but was stopped by his mother Sonia Gandhi.
He further went on to say that Sonia Gandhi asked Rahul not to get married until he becomes the prime minister.
Ramdev, a staunch supporter of BJP’s prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi, said since Rahul is not married, he goes to Dalit houses for picnic and honeymoon but he will never marry a Dalit girl.
Times Now quoted the yoga guru saying: 'If he would have married a dalit girl, her fortunes would have turned. Perhaps he will marry a foreign girl after becoming the PM.'
Congress spokesperson Rita Bahuguna criticised Ramdev saying the party is shocked by Ramdev's remarks and called his commentary on Rahul obnoxious and perverted.
"If someone doesn't wants to get married, then that is his choice. Who are we? Are we matchmakers?" she told Times Now.
