The Struggle Committee for United AP today warned Yoga and spiritual teacher Baba Ram Dev not to meddle in politics.

In a statement issued in Visakhapatnam, the committee asked Ram Dev to concentrate on his Yoga teaching and stop issuing statements and speeches in favour of Telangana formation immediately. “Please do pay attention to your spiritual profession of Yoga and don’t meddle in politics. We request you to immediately stop giving statements in favour of Telangana formation,” the committee said.

The committee threatened that it would not allow Baba Ram Dev to set foot in Seema Andhra if he did not stop giving statements in favour of Telangana forthwith. Saying that the statements of Baba Ram Dev had hurt the sentiments of the Seema Andhra people, the committee has asked the Yoga teacher to withdraw his remarks on Telangana.

It may be mentioned that Ram Dev has been touring in Telangana for the past few days and advocating the division of the state.
