Baba Ramdev Alleges ‘99%’ Irregularities In Government Recruitment, Warns Of Agitation

Yoga guru Baba Ramdev has raised serious allegations over the recruitment process for government jobs, claiming that widespread irregularities, recommendations and bribery are denying deserving candidates a fair opportunity.

Speaking to the media after the flag-hoisting ceremony on India’s 80th Independence Day, Ramdev alleged that the interview stage of government recruitment is particularly vulnerable to malpractice. He warned that if the system is not improved, he may once again take to the streets and launch a public movement.

‘I May Have To Launch Another Agitation’

Ramdev alleged that candidates are sometimes disadvantaged during government job interviews because people belonging to particular castes, groups or organisations are allegedly given preference.

He also criticised the interview process conducted after recruitment examinations, claiming that complaints of bribery and political or influential recommendations have repeatedly surfaced.

According to Ramdev, such practices undermine merit and leave hardworking and deserving young candidates at a disadvantage.

‘Stop Spreading Hatred Against Each Other’

Ramdev also appealed to political leaders to avoid internal conflicts and focus on issues concerning the country.

He said political leaders should not fight among themselves and argued that there was no need for people within the country to remain divided by hatred and hostility.

He further said that while problems should be raised, good work being done in the country should also be acknowledged, and people should stop promoting hatred against one another.
