Ramdev 's Secret Brother : It takes two to tango and three to jive but who's the third wheel in patanjali's fortune

With Ramdev, being the face of the company, and Acharya Balkrishna, the firm's MD, it is Bharat, who deals with the day-to-day operations, and departments including finance, HR, production, and supply chain, while reporting to Balkrishna and Ramdev. However, Bharat acknowledges in coming across as a fair man, not willing to be named the boss but as a mere 'sevak'.

With Ramdev, being the face of the company, and Acharya Balkrishna, the firm’s MD, it is Bharat, who deals with the day-to-day operations, and departments including finance, HR, production, and supply chain, while reporting to Balkrishna and Ramdev.

However, Bharat acknowledges in coming across as a fair man, not willing to be named the boss but as a mere ’sevak’.

This humility goes on to the point of him denying to be photographed, willing to stay as far away from the spotlight as possible.

But everything about Ram Bharat or Bharat Bhai as he likes to be referred by, nonetheless, hasn’t been away from the public gazes. Just like Ramdev, Bharat has pertained to various controversies.
He first made to news in October 2013, when he was impeached for organizing the kidnapping and attack of a former employee who was working in one of the guru’s ashrams.

The police arrested four persons for their plausible involvement in the kidnapping but were not been able to find Ram Bharat, who was said to be on run.

Later the whole case was turned on Congress trying to defame Baba Ramdev

Well, absconding is not new when it comes to Baba’s men, but if somebody (his brother Rambharat) is truly honest, he does not need to be on the run. In this country even those imprisoned on terror charges who hardly find lawyers to defend them have been vindicated. It’s not all so gloomy, Baba.

In May 2015, Bharat again engaged in another controversy where he was taken to judicial custody for provoking a conflict between Haridwar truck union members and guards of Ramdev’s Patanjali Food and Herbal Park.

The clash had stemmed from one person being killed and four others being wounded. For which he was never charged.
It won’t be wrong to say that’s gullible to get away with a crime when the big brand names are attached to you, with Modi backing Baba by praising for his herbs, “I have greater faith in the power of your blessings, and those of the people, than I have in myself.” The material world goes unmentioned empowering the Sanyasi to a higher plane.

Ruchi Soya industries notified shareholders to seek their approval for the appointment of murky Bharat as the managing director.
