Mangaluru, June 21, 2015:  AICC member PV Mohan  states that the  IDT - ’International Day of Yoga’  spear headed  by Narendra Modi government has  hidden agenda of cultural nationalism of RSS. This is a conspiracy to undermine concept of nationalism founded on secularism and egalitarian values of India. IDY does not contain full truth and honesty in its intent and purpose and deplored politics of narrow cultural nationalism forced into Indian society.

This agenda to impose culturally nationalistic practices will have an  impact on the development of the country. Yoga has spread far and wide transcending the barriers of religion and country. Essentially a secular way leading a healthy life, RSS is hijacking yoga thereby confining this to  particular religion. The IDY does not seem to be a health issue, it has emerged as the propaganda tool for advancing Hindutva agenda, he said.

Communal hatred among Hindus for  minority communities  with Yoga as a tool is at work. We will vehemently oppose this, said Mohan said, adding Congress supports yoga that aims at improving the health and wel lbeing of people. But health and wellbeing of the people find no place in Modi led central government. A mere 1% of GDP has been allotted to health and well being issues, Mohan pointed.

The BJP government is harping on "Sabka Saath, Sab Ka Vikas" and on the other it does nothing to rein in minority hate.  The government is yet to condemn series of attacks on churches being witnessed in the country. Programmes like Ghar Wapsi has the tacit approval of the government. It has done nothing to stop the glorification of Godse. The people of this country has never accepted the notion of one religion.
