Pune, Feb 5 (ANI): Yoga guru Baba Ramdev has advised Congress General Secretary Rahul Gandhi to focus his energies on weeding out black money and corruption in the country, instead of merely concentrating on the Marathi and non-Marathi controversy.
Talking to reporters here on Thursday, Baba Ramdev said: “Rahul Gandhi is an energetic youth. He should think about banning fake Indian currencies being smuggled into the country, through which India will be able earn some funds for its development and growth. I would like to advise Rahul to not get into the issue of ‘Marathi Manoos’.
“Rahul should look into some real issues of India. By doing this, he will not only solve Maharashtra but also the country’s problems. He should look forward towards developing the nation,” he added.
He further said that the Constitution of India has listed 22 national languages, which should be respected by everybody and the Marathi language is not the language of Maharashtrians only, but all Indians.
Shiv Sena party and the MNS have been accused of being behind the attacks on north Indians in Mumbai and other places in Maharashtra. (ANI)
