The Ramdeo Baba and medicine conspiracy is turning into a totally political issue. Parties and Politicians providing support to both parties, demanding reexamination of The 'Herbal' medicines. Along with this demand, they arent letting go of any chance of throwing random accusations at oppositions. And plus, there are plenty of news channels to give feed and footage to the issue, enlarging the problem with the best possible words.

I prefer to watch them talk while having lunch or dinner. Atleast, the harpic ad doesnt pop up frequently on news...

1) no water supply on Sat? err, ummm,okay. Atleast good that I read it here.
2)If samples given were not from proper sources as Baba said, then they are bound to be positive. However, if medicines he gives really contain human/animal bones, it's serious matter to be probed into to avoid further occurance.

Yoga promoted by Baba is universally accepted thing.
Aayurvedic medicines are good remedies in the long term with no side effects,though not immediate relief. So, nobody should think that objecting herbal medicines will promote MNCs.
