New Delhi:

Urging people to vote for clean government, Baba Ramdev on Wednesday asked them to come out of their homes in large numbers.

“I appeal to people to venture out in large numbers and vote. Karo vote par chot, mitao prajatantra ka khot (vote for clean democracy), this is what I say to people,” Ramdev added.

Stressing that voting should be made mandatory, he noted that exercising one's right to franchise alone can lead to change, he asked people to vote for candidates who they think are clean.

“Vote for clean candidates and if you feel there is an army of corrupt nominees, vote for the less corrupt,” Ramdev said.

“Vote has great power. It can change PMs and CMs. People must come out and vote. I would say voting should be made compulsory for everyone. Those who don't vote should be deprived of facilities,” he said.

Ramdev was asked about the Narendra Modi-led government for whose installation he had worked hard was performing satisfactorily, he said it was discharging its duties with total authenticity.

“I worked hard at the time of 2014 Lok Sabha polls as change of guard at the Centre was an objective of my political movement. I think Modi ji is observing his rajdharma with total authenticity,” the yoga guru said.
