Yoga guru Baba Ramdev today sought to downplay his statement wherein he had chided BJP's Alwar candidate Mahant Chandnath for discussing election funds when mics were on.
"I had made an ordinary statement saying it was not an issue to be discussed on that platform. He (Chandnath) said that money is (getting) seized. I said (that) this should not be discussed here," Ramdev said responding to a query at a press conference here. The conversation, prior to commencement of press meet in Alwar recently, had left Ramdev red faced as TV cameras caught him warning Chandnath not to talk about money when mics were on.
Ramdev, who is busy touring various parts of the country, mobilising support for BJP's PM nominee Narendra Modi, said Congress will be reduced to 50 seats.
"Congress will get only 40-50 seats. There is not only a Modi wave, but a Modi storm which will make big trees fall... It is our dream that Modiji enters Parliament with the support of more than 300 MPs," he added.
