While able Congress leaders will form a new party, others will join existing political parties…Congress is on death bed,” he said. He said people have lost faith in political parties and are supporting Narendra Modi and not the BJP. On Muzaffarnagar violence, Ramdev said the incidents were unfortunate and demanded strict action against the guilty. Asked about BJP MLAs’ alleged involvement in violence, Ramdev said irrespective of the party, they should be arrested and punishment should be given to them. “Chief Minister Akhilesh is a youth and I wish he would perform his duties,” he said.
