Panchkula: Yoga guru Baba Ramdev on Thursday said that he will launch a political party if the Centre fails to take necessary steps to put an end to corruption in the country.

"I will launch a new political party if politicians do not put an end to corruption. I expect my yoga followers to convert into voters if I launch a new party, he said, while speaking to reporters here.

He said the Centre should bring in an effective law against corruption and there should be a provision of death penalty for those who are found guilty.

"Corruption is a political problem created by politicians and not a social problem as described by them to save their skin," he said.

The Yoga guru also said that the government should work to bring back the money deposited in Swiss banks soon.

Whether his political party would be in a position to challenge the established political parties remains to be seen. But there is absolutely no doubt that in taking up the issue of corruption, the Swami has touched upon the most vital issue in our nation. If corruption continues at the rate is it going, our nation is doomed. Therefore in order to save our nation, everyone should support the Swami and his proposed political party. A political revolution is called for and Swami Ramdev could prove to be the man of the moment.
