"In our country several incidents and riots have happened in the past under various governments including the Congress...So it would be wrong to call him a murderer," the yoga guru said while referring to the 1984 riots under the Congress rule.
Hailing Modi as the only leader present at the moment with guts and power to fight corrupt and dishonest leaders, Ramdev said, "I have given issue-based support to Modi who is the only leader with guts and power to fight those corrupt and dishonest people."
Ramdev met BJP state president Vasundhara Raje. Though details of the meeting was not known, insiders said they had a discussion on the state's political scenario.
Meanwhile, Ramdev welcomed the Supreme Court's move to bar jailed politicians from contesting elections and also praised Allahabad High Court's decision to ban caste base political rallies saying, both the moves would help cleaning the country's political system.
"Both these decisions would help Indian politics free from criminal elements," he said.
Ramdev said he may file a PIL seeking details of those who have invested money as FDI in different Indian companies.
