An apex court bench of Justice B.S. Chauhan and Justice Swatanter Kumar was told that the “whole activity against Baba Ramdev was not on the grounds of yoga but on account of his semi-spiritual activity of fight against black money”.

The court was told this during a hearing on the police action past midnight June 4 evicting Ramdev and his followers. The court questioned the police over the action in which Ramdev supporter Raj Bala, 51, a resident of Haryana, was critically injured. She died in Delhi after a 114-day hospitalisation.
