Ramdev to go ahead with Fast today
After a five-hour marathon meeting, the government and Baba Ramdev on Friday failed to reach a compromise on the demands raised by the yoga guru, who said he will launch his indefinite fast on Saturday as planned.
Emerging from the meeting at a hotel in New Delhi, HRD Minister Kapil Sibal said the two sides had constructive dialogue on several matters and they are very happy with the progress but these issues cannot be resolved in a day.
"We have yet not reached a compromise and I will sit on fast (from Saturday)," Ramdev said after his meeting with Sibal and and Subodh Kant Sahai.
Meanwhile, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh also briefed President Pratibha Patil on the deliberations.
Sibal said the government has responded positively to the Baba's suggestions and hoped that Ramdev will do "what is right".
