A spokesperson for Ramdev said he did not have any immediate comment on the matter.
The Supreme Court of India has in recent weeks repeatedly criticized Ramdev for not complying with its directives in an ongoing lawsuit to stop misleading adverstisements of some of his traditional ayurvedic medicines.
The judges are considering whether to press contempt charges against Ramdev or not.
