Don't oppose Baba Ramdev's Corona Kit Just for political reasons.

Don't oppose Baba Ramdev just for hake of it; if his corona kit can't cure your corona, at least it will enhance your immunity and certainly it will have no side effect like we may experience in case of many allopathic medicines.

A very well reasoned arguments by this news editor during a TV debate.

Nobody opposes some cream promising your skin to turn white, nobody opposes when some allopathic medicine claims to increase your height, nobody has problem, if some medicines are sold for sharpening one's mind despite no evidence justifying the above-said claims.

If people don't have any problem with all the above-said claims of allopathic medicines, why do we oppose Ramdev's corona kit(costing meagre Rs. 535/-). Probably at the most, It mayn't achieve the desired objective, but it can't cause any harm to anybody, what may happen with many allopathic drugs being given to corona patients, having only partial evidence of the success.

Today, so many people are feeling irked by Baba Ramdev's corona kit that not only they are opposing but Rajasthan & Maharashtra governments have threatened to file cases against Baba Ramdev.

Looks like, allopathic medical science is opposing it because they are suffering from complex that what whole of medical/scientific fraternity all across the globe  couldn't develop during last six months, how Baba can develop ayurvedic solution for the same  just within 3-4 months? Rest of the people are opposing just because of political reasons, Baba's perceived closeness to powers-that-be at the centre.

Corona Kit of Baba Ramdev: fact check of trial


Many of us including me support Baba Ramdev  for his contribution to popularising yoga, Ayurved, Swadeshi movement etc but despite the above as rational persons  we should also  know the pros & cons of his medicine for corona.

Trial of coronil  was conducted by patanjali only on asymptomatic & mildly symptomatic patients. Severely symptomatic patients were excluded from trial & mildly symptomatic patients when developed fever were administered allopathic medicines.

https://indianexpress.com/article/india/ramdev-ayurvedic-corona-kit-no-govt-nod-trials-that-used-allopathic-drugs-6475004/lite/?__twitter_impression=true

This is what I had written yesterday and same proving correct that Corona kit of Baba Ramdev may be  applicable on patients only on asymptomatic patients  &  patients with mild symptoms, comprising of  about 90% of total corona patients. So, we all should know that this kit will be helpful for most of corona patients, may be upto 90% patients but for severely symptomatic patients, this kit mayn't be helpful. Such severely symptomatic patients, 5%-10% patients may have to fall back upon allopathic medicines only to save their lives.

Whatever may be its limitation, it would be helpful for the common masses bcoz for its economical cost Rs.535/- for entire kit, if it helps 90% of corona patients, it's worth it. Even expensive allopathic medicine of Glenmark, Rs. 103 per tablet(total treatment cost, probably, Rs. 30K-35K)
don't claim 100% cure. 

In a nutshell, Corona kit of Baba Ramdev should be very popular bcoz it's affordable and likely to boost our immunization and most likely to cure at least 90% of patients. Only thing, we should avoid to take their claim on face value that it can cure all patients within a week.

Baba Ramdev may have gone overboard about his claim but don't prejudge him .

One may criticize Baba Ramdev for going overboard and claiming that with his medicines, corona can be cured 100% within 3-7 days. In the present times, when best of doctors and scientists, despite their best of efforts during six months, have not been able to find any medicine/vaccine to cure corona 100%, prudence demanded that baba ramdev should have exercised caution & patience before making claim of 100% cure within a week. To that extent, baba ramdev may be criticized. However dismissing his products as trash and making fun of him is also not justified in the absence of any data about efficacy of his product in fighting corona. We must not forget that baba ramdev's patanjali has launched large number of products in the market during last 7-8 years and most of his products are hugely popular among masses. Quite a number of his products have become regular part of our households. Most of the established FMCG companies, Like HLL, Dabur etc are having very tough time in competing with patanjali products. This kind of popularity of his products won't have sustained for 7-8 years continuously, if his products were found to be trash after use by millions of people on daily basis.


Infact, barring few rational critics who are simply questioning his "100% cure claim", most of other critics are using this occasion to settle their ideological differences with Baba ramdev. Everyone knows, baba ramdev talks of swadeshi, atma nirbhar bharat, hindutva philosophy, & on top of it , he is supposedly an admirer of  Modi and all those who profess different ideology are using this occasion to come heavy on baba ramdev.


My request, let baba exercise some restraint on his claim ;however people also should wait before dismissing Ramdev's claim outrightly. One thing I am sure, even if Ramdev's medicine is not able to treat "critical" 5%-10% corona patients, it will be at least be efficacious in case of 90% patients with mild symptoms. And even if his medicine is able to tackle 90% of mild cases, most of the Indians will thank baba ramdev instead of keep railing against him for his 100% claim.

Are communists #ChineseAgentsInIndia ?


Communists in India  continue to follow their pro china policy of 1962.In 1962 they had refused to consider China as aggressor rather they, then, had blamed India for aggression against China. They continue to follow their pro china policy even today. In   all party meet today, communists refused to condemn treacherous #China, who deceitfully killed 20 brave Indian soldiers. 

CPM Leader Sitaram Yechury said  India should  follow Nehru's Panchsheel policy of 1962 I.e. Hindi Chini bhai-bhai. CPI leader D Raja instead of condemning China, condemned India for being friendly with US.

Looks like Genes of communists run through comrades of JNU and that's why We hear quite often  cry for tukde-tukde of India in JNU's campus.

Point is, if communists refuse to mend their pro china policy vis-a-vis India,why should they be allowed to live in India? Just to weaken India from within against China?

Will Delhi CM let Amit Shah's initiative for people of Delhi work & succeed?

Will Delhi CM maintain silence for long & let good initiatives of home minister Amit Shah for people of Delhi work & succeed?

Watch the video and see how Mota Bhai's visit enthuses nursing staff of LNJP Hospital. Chief minister of Delhi must be wondering, if mota bhai continues to help him/Delhi like this, he will remain CM only in name.


Can an egoist & cunning politician  like Kejriwal accept erosion of his authority, popularity, glory by Home Minister Amit Shah for long? I am sure,  he will soon try to " raitaa failao" on efforts of Amit Shah to save delhi. Let's see when Kejriwal begins his raitaa failao mission either directly or through his Dy CM Sisodia or AAP MP Sanjay Singh or his trusted spokes persons Raghav Chadha and Atishi because people knowing him well know for sure that for him his sense of "individual  glory" takes precedence over everything else including interest of  people.

Treating Corona patients in Delhi worse than animals.

Delhi CM wants Delhi Govt hospitals barred for outsiders, where even people of Delhi are scared to go.


Even People of Delhi are cursing why they went to LNJP Hospital & other hospitals of Delhi Govt.and still  Delhi CM wants to close these hospitals for patients from other states. Patients went there in not so bad condition, curable with even ordinary treatment but after going to Delhi Govt hospitals, situation went out of control and ultimately only their dead bodies came out. In fact even dead bodies remained inside for days unattended and afterwards relatives  had tough time for even decent burial of dead bodies of the deceased.



Due to this horrible condition in Delhi Govt hospitals, supreme court had to say " treating patients of corona patients  in Delhi is worse than animals". Courts have also severely rebuked govt for not testing more. In fact as cases started increasing in Delhi, Kejriwal govt started discouraging testing by putting so many conditions and result is today rate of positivity has reached 36% I.e. every 3rd person tested in Delhi is likely to be positive.


One can understand, handling this kind of pandemic is too difficult for any govt. However, this is also true that most of CMs have been doing their best without making any noise like Delhi CM. Since 24th March, only job Kejriwal is doing is to come on national TV channels live on daily basis, as if he is not Chief minister of a city but Chief Minister of India and during these appearances he would be making false and tall claims. He has been spending thousands of crores on TV & news paper  advt making tall & false claims. 

One can understand, this pandemic is not easy to handle for any govt, however in Delhi, situation is far too serious because Kejriwal instead of working seriously has only indulged in publicity, spending huge tax payers' money only on promoting himself rather than expending his efforts and money for providing  infrastructure & facilities for corona treatment.

#CoronaInDelhi. Delhi can't be left to the mercy of God; urgent intervention needed



Delhi can't be left to the mercy of God; urgent intervention is needed to save lives of millions of people.

Situation reaches alarming level in Delhi; Delhi now having second highest active cases(14456) after Maharashtra(39935) but much higher than other states like, Tamil Nadu(12135); Gujarat(4779).

Situation getting worrisome in Delhi everyday. Cases are on rise, number of active cases highest after Maharashtra despite very low testing rate(avg testing varying between 506 to maxm 2018 per million people in various districts of Delhi) but positivity  rate reaching 25.7%(per 100 people tested), official death figure reaches 650, despite several  allegations for several weeks that Delhi Govt is hiding death figure, due to corona. 


Despite the above, beds for corona patients are not available in Delhi Govt hospitals. Most of the patients have to quarantine at their homes. Even many serious patients due to lack of beds are not getting admission in hospitals and are losing their lives.

In a nutshell, situation in Delhi has reached alarming level and situation is getting worrisome with each passing day. However, instead of tackling the situation, Delhi CM still is more interested in his publicity and is interested in showing his face on national TV channels frequently  on one pretext or another. Instead of handling situation, Delhi Govt is trying to issue gag orders to Pvt labs so that there are lesser testing, so that lesser number of corona cases are reported. It may be noted that for last several weeks, there has been allegations that  Delhi Govt has been hiding actual death figures due to corona. In order to deflect attention from his failures, Delhi CM has again embarked on the path of  confrontation, sometimes sealing the borders, sometimes doubting data of RML Hospital on corona, sometimes asking for money from centre to pay salary to Delhi Govt staff etc.

To sum up, situation in Delhi has become very alarming and is likely to worsen further and as Delhi Govt is unable to tackle the situation, some intervention is immediately needed and lives of millions of people can't be left to the mercy of totally inept Delhi Govt.
