India has been built by saints, yogis and fakirs, not by any king or emperor, Yoga guru Ramdev said on Wednesday. “Yoga has been an inalienable part of our culture.
No king or emperor has built India or shaped its destiny. In fact, India has been built by saints, yogis and fakirs. It is a matter of pride for us that the Prime Minister is a yogi, and the Chief Minister of the most populous state is also a yogi,” he said. The Yoga guru was addressing the first day of the three-day UP Yoga Mahotsava here. “Ram Rajya would definitely come to Uttar Pradesh,” he said. Underlining the benefits of Yoga, Ramdev said, “We will do Yoga together and take steps to remove societal illness, diseases, bad habits, intoxication and other negativities. This will make lives peaceful and prosperous.”
On the issue of triple talaq, he said, “There should not be any injustice with any woman, irrespective of the religion they belong to. Secondly, those who have faith in judiciary would not endorse triple-talaq. And, if anyone is citing the Holy Quran to substantiate their logic, they are simply insulting Islam and Quran.”
