Jethmalani plans movement against black money

NEW DELHI: Eminent lawyer Ram Jethmalani has decided to seek the help of yoga expert, Ramdev, to take the issue of black money stashed away in Swiss banks to the “court of the people.”

Recalling that he and a group of associates had filed a petition a few months ago on the issue, he said, that he was forced to take the matter to the people since, court procedures, congested calendars and the apathy of the government had made it difficult to secure quick results.

Addressing a press conference along with former Delhi Chief Minister, Madanlal Khurana, he said, he and Mr.Khurana would meet Mr. Ramdev at Haridwar on November 14 and finalise the programme for a mass movement.
