The Congress and the Left Monday condemned yoga guru Ramdev for saying that if the country didn’t have laws, “we would have decapitated lakhs” for refusing to chant ‘Bharat Mata ki Jai’. Slamming Ramdev for a “deliberately provocative” statement, Congress’s communication department head Randeep Surjewala said: “It is in complete negation of not only law of the land, but an intentional provocation towards the people for resorting to the path of violence.
