NEW DELHI: Prime Minister Manmohan Singh on Tuesday went the extra mile to persuade yoga guru Ramdev not to go ahead with his hunger strike from June 4, promising him to find a "practical and pragmatic" solution to tackle the issue of corruption. "This is not a personal issue. We all agree with Ramdev that corruption is a big problem and that we are committed to tackling it with all the resources at our disposal," Singh told reporters on the sidelines of a function at Rashtrapati Bhavan. The remarks by the Prime Minister came close on the heels of a letter he had written to Ramdev "welcoming his constructive suggestions to improve governance".

After a five-hour marathon meeting, the government and Baba Ramdev on Friday failed to reach a compromise on the demands raised by the yoga guru, who said he will launch his indefinite fast on Saturday as planned. Emerging from the meeting at a hotel in New Delhi, HRD Minister Kapil Sibal said the two sides had constructive dialogue on several matters and they are very happy with the progress but these issues cannot be resolved in a day. “We have not reached a compromise yet and I will sit on fast (from tomorrow),” Baba Ramdev said after his meeting with Mr. Sibal and Subodh Kant Sahay. Meanwhile, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh also briefed President Pratibha Patil on the deliberations. Mr. Sibal said the government has responded positively to the Baba Ramdev’s suggestions and hoped that the yoga guru will do “what is right“.
