New Delhi: An FIR has been registered against businessman and yoga teacher Ramdev in Rajasthan on Sunday (February 5), under sections pertaining to promoting enmity and outraging religious feeling. The case pertains to a provocative speech Ramdev gave in Barmer, where he claimed that Muslims and Christians communities have been “obsessed” with “conversion”.A police officer told PTI that the FIR was registered at Chauhatan police station based on a complaint filed by a local resident, Pathai Khan.According to Chauhatan police station SHO Bhutaram, the FIR was registered under IPC Sections 153A (promoting enmity between different groups on grounds of religion, race, place of birth, residence), 295A (deliberate and malicious acts, intended to outrage religious feelings of any class by insulting its religion or religious beliefs) and 298 (uttering, words, etc., with deliberate intent to wound the religious feelings of any person).In a viral video of a congregation of Hindu leaders in Barmer on February 2, Ramdev can be heard saying that Muslims believe that namaz washes away all sins, including “kidnapping Hindu girls and terrorism”. He added in Hindi, “Ask a Muslim what your religion says, they will say, ‘Read namaz five times and then do whatever comes to mind.’ Whether you kidnap Hindu girls, do whatever sin you want to commit. They think that the meaning of Islam is only namaz.”He adds: “Our Muslim brothers commit a lot of sins, but I have seen that they will definitely pray. Because that’s what they have been taught, just pray, do whatever else you want to do. They became terrorists, and a lot of them become criminals.”“I am not saying this is what Islam or Quran teaches. But it is being followed anyway,” he says in the video.About Christianity, he claimed: “What does Christianity say? Go to church, light a candle, and then stand in front of the Lord Jesus… all your sins will be washed away.” He can be heard saying that Christians wear a cross across their chest and propagate the religion.“I am not criticising anyone. These people are just obsessed with that. Some say turn the whole world into Islam, someone says the whole world should be turned into Christianity. But tell me what you will do by changing it. No agenda,” he goes on in the video.The Rajasthan police had earlier initiated a suo motu enquiry into the statements.This is not the first time that Ramdev has made problematic statements. In November last year, he commented that women look good when they wear “saris, salwar kameez or even, if like me, when they choose to wear nothing”.
