Ramdev's fast

Baba Ramdev's mission to stir the government into action to bring back the black money spirited away abroad is admirable. However, instead of putting forward quixotic demands like “replacing the British-inherited system of governance, administration, taxation, education, law and order with a swadeshi alternative”, he would do well to raise public awareness on India-U.S. deals like Knowledge Initiative in Agriculture, rampant nuclearisation, anti-farmer policies, decimation of indigenous medicinal systems, etc., which are the real dangers confronting us.
