A man threw black ink on yoga guru Ramdev’s face at a press conference here today where he was talking about his plans to campaign against black money in the coming Assembly elections. Seated along with Janata Party leader Subramanian Swamy at the Constitution Club in the heart of the capital, Ramdev's left eye was blackened with ink by the man identified as Kamran Siddiqui, a resident of Delhi who is said to be running an NGO 'Real Cause' which is a petitioner in the Batla House encounter case.

Ramdev's supporters at the conference caught him and manhandled him before police took him away. The man, whose shirt was torn and removed, was seen bleeding from his lips. Police escorted the yoga guru away from the club.
