The Patanjali Yogpeeth, Baba Ramdev’s Yoga Institute, however, refuted the rumours and clarified that Ramdev was fit and fine. It added that he is currently in Haridwar for a Yoga camp, reported The Statesman.

The 5-day camp for participants from Nepal, reportedly started on 1 May. The Yogpeeth denied reports about Ramdev’s knee surgery.

Truth is basis of Indian lifestyle and circulating such baseless information is not recommended. Irresponsible people are involved in such acts. Baba Ramdev is fit.

SK Tijarawala, Spokesperson, Patanjali Yogpeeth, as quoted by The Statesman

Ramdev will reportedly be in Haridwar till 5 May.
