BHOPAL: Yoga guru Ramdev on Thursday criticised the BJP-led Central government for failing to tackle joblessness. “The Centre and state governments have not been able to do much to solve unemployment,” Ramdev told reporters, adding that he resolved to “build a self-reliant country through Swadeshi”.

“Unemployment, poverty, hunger and scarcity are disgrace to Mother India. My aim is to wipe off this blot,” he said. “During the last month, our Patanjali group has provided jobs to 11,000 people in its sales department. In six months, we’d have provided 20,000 new jobs to the youth”
