‘Owaisi not OBC’: Baba Ramdev on viral video of him featuring outraging remarks against community

IndiaTimes Saturday, 13 January 2024
Attempting to pacify the uproar sparked by his recent statements, Baba Ramdev, the yoga guru and founder of Patanjali, provided a clarification on Saturday in response to a video circulating on the social media platform X. The contentious remarks, uttered during a public appearance, ignited anger and prompted calls for a boycott of Patanjali, the FMCG company headquartered in Haridwar and co-founded by Ramdev in 2006. The phrase that he allegedly said referencing the Other Backward Classes (OBCs) stirred controversy, with social media users deeming it offensive to this community.

LS Polls 2024: Congress manifesto launch | Priyanka Gandhi, Kharge slam BJP, Modi | Oneindia News

Top Congress leaders, including the party president Mallikarjun Kharge, former president Sonia Gandhi, held a rally in Jaipur on Saturday, April 6, to publicly launch its election manifesto 'Nyay Patra'. The Jaipur public rally comes a day after the Congress released its manifesto for the 2024 Lok Sabha polls promising a legal guarantee for MSP, and passing a constitutional amendment to raise the 50 per cent cap on reservations for SCs, STs and OBCs among others. The release of the manifesto 'Nyay Patra' was announced by Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, expressing happiness and pride in her mother Sonia Gandhi's presence in Rajasthan after becoming a member of the Rajya Sabha. Unemployment, claimed to be at its peak, was criticised, with allegations made against the BJP and Modi government for failing to address the issue adequately. The Agniveer scheme, accused of shattering people's hopes, was mentioned, along with concerns raised about leaked papers in various states and the ongoing protests by farmers, suggesting that PM Modi is unwilling to heed their grievances.
