Lalu says Ramdev 'senile', cheating people
Patna: RJD chief Lalu Prasad has flayed yoga guru Ramdev, who has decided to float a political party, for criticising every politician in the country and said it was nothing but madness.

"It is not good that Ramdev is criticising every politician in the country to prove himself good," Prasad told a function here yesterday.

"In fact, Ramdevji bauwra gaye hai (Ramdev has gone mad)," he said, adding that he had already told the yoga teacher not to launch any political outfit.

Prasad also criticised Ramdev for claiming to cure cancer. "In this research age, it is nothing but cheating and befooling people," he said.

Interestingly, Prasad had earlier defended Ramdev when CPM leader Brinda Karat had alleged that animal bones were mixed with ayurvedic medicines produced by Patanjali
Yogapeeth, an institution established by Ramdev at Hardwar.
