A yoga guru and thousands of his supporters have been detained by police as they tried to march to India's parliament to protest against corruption and press for a change of government.

As he was led away by police, Baba Ramdev shouted slogans urging his supporters to fight to end India's endemic corruption and seek the repatriation of billions of dollars in illegal money he says Indians have stashed in foreign banks.
