India can take on China under any circumstances: Ramdev

Ludhiana, August 18

Yoga guru Ramdev on Friday criticised China over the ongoing military impasse on the Doklam Plateau and described India as content and contained country that could take on China under any circumstances.

He said, “India is today a self-contented country with sufficient arms, ammunitions and army to fight against China.” 

“Let China accumulate blood, dollars, weapons and whatsoever, but they cannot threaten or harm our nation under any circumstances,” he added.

He said how could China threaten the nation when the world knew that India had one of the largest markets and the fact that China could generate almost Rs 20 lakh crore of business and earn a profit of approximately Rs 5 lakh crore, which is almost half of the revenue earned by the Centre.

“I think India must strongly take on China and compel them to bend at their knees. It can suppress weak countries of the globe, but a country like India is not going to be suppressed by these threats, and neither can China compete with India at any level,” Ramdev said.

Earlier, he described China as the epitome of “promoting war and hatred” in the world, and reiterated his demand for a boycott of Chinese goods.

“All Indians who feel for their country should boycott Chinese goods immediately,” he said.

“Indians should strictly ban the purchase of Chinese products. This will reduce their market in our country and they would be compelled to step back,” he added. ANI
