Has Baba Ramdev bought Chinese Apple Juice? What about Swadeshi or Make in India?

Today, one news in the Hindustan Times shocked me that Baba Ramdev has discontinued buying Apple Concentrate from HPMC and started buying it from China. A great shock for me because I never expected this from a person like Baba Ramdev who advocates Swadeshi over foreign products.

As per the news, Baba Ramdev's Patanjali Ayurveda dumped HPMC, a Himachal government subsidiary, to Chinese vendor over the price issue. It looks that profitability has taken priority at Petangali Yogpeth and they are dumping Indian manufacturers who are unable to offer prices equivalent to Chinese manufacturers.

Some newspapers, even termed it as Hypocrisy? The cost issue was not very big as HPMC asked to increase the cost of Apple juice 1 Kg concentrate from Rs 72 to Rs 100 and from 1 Kg of juice concentrate we can make more than 1000 liters of juice. Patanjali sells 1 Kg Apple Juice for Rs 85, therefore, it was not a big hike in price of Apple concentrate asked by HPMC, then why Baba Ramdev dumped the Swadeshi company to a Cheap Chinese one.

Many Indians buy Baba Ramdev products because they believe that they are of Indian origin; therefore, this move of Baba Ramdev has hurt many. The same thing I noticed in Baba Ramdev's Divya Kanti toothpaste which contain all chemicals and basic ingredients as we see in regular toothpastes. These developments highlight that Baba Ramdev is using Swadeshi to sell its products which may not be Swadeshi in reality.

It is important for the Baba Ramdev to clear his stand on such issues so that we can come to know about the reality. If his products are not 100% Swadeshi, then he should not brand them as 100% Swadeshi because it is a kind of fraud with millions of innocent Indians who follow him blindly.

About Bihar Sanskrit Shiksha Board results, recognition and Authenticity

I posted about the Bihar Sanskrit Shiksha Board (BSSB) earlier too because I found many people struggling to find the results of their exams. Many frauds have been done in the name of this school board and there is news of fake certificates sold for Rs 10,000. For the first time, I have found a school education board whose website changes so fast and we can find multiple websites online. Initially, the first question which came to my mind was that Is Bihar Sanskrit Shiksha Board is a fake one or a real one because it is very hard to find the real and current active official website of this board. In 2008, the website of this board was www.bssbonline.com and then changed to www.bssbpatna.com. In the 2020 official letter of the board, the official website was written www.bssbpat.com. In an earlier 2019 official letter, two websites are mentioned www.bssbpat.com and www.bssbpat.in. Online I found the mention of biharsanskritshikshaboard.in as the official website. There is a website n
