the centre has activated all its agencies to look into the sources of Ramdev and his Ashram incomes and the expenditure.
Sources said that Baba has earned more than Rs 11000 crore in less than a decade. Over 200 businesses from broadcasting companies including Aastha TV to food parks to medicine companies are run by his trusted lieutenants Acharya Balkrishna and Mukta Anand.
Sources said that the finance ministry is waiting for a detailed income tax survey which is currently being done on Ramdev property.
It said that government is out to reveal all the black and white money and also the people behind his money.
Now even Hindu Sadhu Sants, the spiritual leaders are also perturbed over ramdev activities. They want full probe into Ramdev’s assets.
“Ramdev has a lot of land and assets worth crores. These should be probed as well,” said Puri shankaracharya Swami Adhokshjanand Tirtha.
The activities of the Ramdev right hand Balkrishna’s is also being investigated. He was mysteriously disappeared from public view after the midnight police action at the Ramlila maidan.
“Balkrishna is a Nepalese citizen. He committed a crime there and came to India. He has three passports. They should be investigated. He is a thug,” said Digvijay Singh.
If that is not enough, it now appears that Baba Ramdev has run foul of the USFDA. He has been denied permission to sell ayurveda products in the United States. The USFDA has levelled allegations of misbranding, selling products that are either not listed or not approved.
The health ministry will also scrutinise the drug business of Baba Ramdev. “We will look at these issues once the dust settles,” said Ghulam Nabi Azad.
