Chandigarh, May 8

Baba Ramdev has been called “insensitive and inhumane” for “mocking and blaming” Covid victims for not breathing proper.

Ramdev’s viral video has over 466.9k views, where he says "that patients just don't know how to breathe properly, and therefore, spread negativity and complain of shortage of oxygen and cremation sites". 

AIPWA secretary Kavita Krishnana tweeted: 

Ramdev who peddled the Coronil "Covid cure", mocks at and blames victims of Covid-19, saying they just don't know how to breathe properly, and therefore spread negativity and complain of shortage of oxygen and cremation sites. https://t.co/NFBm8SDmre
