Yoga Guru and Patanjali CEO Ramdev Baba posted a video on Twitter. He mocked patients who are dying due to lack of oxygen. He made a sensitive statement in his video,“Marte hain aise hi. Arey, bhagwaan ne muft mein oxygen de rakhi hai. (People say) oxygen ki kami pad rahi hai…bhagwaan ne saara bramhmand bhar rakha hai oxyegn se…le toh le.”
Bahar cylinder dhoondh rahe hain, tu apne bheetar 2 cylinder laga rakhe hain…”cylinder kam pad gaye”.
His words have angered many citizens, who took to Twitter and lashed out against him. At a time when hundreds if not thousands of people are dying due to lack of oxygen in hospitals and poor healthcare infrastructure, Baba Ramdev’s comments during a yoga session has invited the anger and wrath of citizens. Many trolled him for his insensitive statements.
Mocking people who are crying for oxygen, essentially asking people to utilise their bodies to generate oxygen. The bizarre claims absolutely make no sense.
In the video, Baba Ramdev goes on to claim that people whose oxygen levels dropped to 70-80%, he was able to restore it back to 98% and 100% through one hour of Yoga.
He ends his speech with a comment on how people are “spreading negativity” by saying that there are no beds in the hospitals or space in the crematoriums.
