Bharatiya Janata Party [BJP] Rajkot candidate, Mohan Kundariya was caught on camera walking on children's backs at a yoga event on Sunday.

Mohan attended a yoga camp at the Swaminarayan temple in Rajkot as chief guest and he walked over the students waving BJP and saffron flags. The video was captured by a student and shared in WhatsApp with his friends. Later on the video was uploaded in Youtube which went viral.

However when contacted Mohan for explanation, he defended it. “ The schoolchildren forced me to walk over them to display their physical and mental strength which they garnered by practicing yoga. I'm not a cruel person to hurt anyone physically,” added Mohan.

So far none have complained regarding this to the Election Commission.
