Noted Yoga Guru Ramdev Baba is giving sleepless nights to the BJP leadership these days. Now he says he will be able to make available diesel and petrol at just Rs 35 to Rs 40 per litre to make the common man’s life easy.

The magic formula proposed by him is more to do with reducing tax burden on fuel prices. On top of it, the Baba of Patanjali fame also proposes higher prices for the rich sections of society. While proposing these wishful measures, the Baba took care to say that he still has hope that Prime Minister Modi would take steps for bringing down fuel prices soon. The Baba has not been talking kindly of the BJP and Mr Modi for a long time now. There are rumours that he is not going to support BJP in 2019 elections under any circumstances. His comments came amid widespread concerns all over India in recent days over relentless hikes in fuel prices. Petrol price rose above Rs 82 per litre as of now.
