New Delhi: Yoga guru Ramdev was seen on camera losing his cool and threatening a journalist, who asked him about his comments in the past on reducing petrol prices.
During an event, a journalist asked the Patanjali brand ambassador about his comment to the media that people should consider a government that can ensure petrol for ₹ 40 a litre and cooking gas at ₹ 300 a cylinder.
To this, Ramdev replied, “Yes, I said it, what can you do? Don’t keep asking such questions. Am I your contractor who has to keep answering your questions?”
The yoga guru, in a 2014 television interview, had said, “If taxes are reduced from 50% to 1%, fuel price is bound to come down. I have studied much economics,”
Ramdev goes on to threaten the reporter, saying it wouldn’t be good for him if he asked such questions again.
