RSS behind attack on Ramdev: Digvijay

New Delhi, Jan 15: Congress leader Digvijay Singh alleged there was a "well-orchestrated conspiracy" by RSS behind the ink attack on yoga guru Ramdev and the NGO activist who did it was "anti-Congress" and has links with BJP.

"I have seen the visuals of the person who threw ink at Baba Ramdev and it seems there is politics behind it. It seems to be a well-orchestrated conspiracy. Kamran Sidique, who did it runs an NGO 'Real Cause'. He (Kamran) is "anti-Congress" from the very beginning and had opposed our candidate Pervej Hashmi in elections.

It should be probed how much fund his NGO got from varioius government departments during NDA rule," Singh told reporters here.

Alleging that RSS was behind the incident, he said "people of Sangh were promoting Baba Ramdev like anything.

He has, however, been exposed. Hence, they have enacted it to make him a hero," he said. Asked whether he sees it as case of match fixing between BJP and the accused, Singh said "definitely. That is what I am saying."

Siddique threw ink at Ramdev during a press conference at the Constitution Club this afternoon after the yoga guru refused to answer a question on Batla House encounter.
