When Baba Ramdev met actor Sanjay Dutt in Yerwada jail

Mumbai, Jan 15:Yoga guru Baba Ramdev taught pranayam and yoga asanas to prisoners at Yerwada jail and sked them to give up smoking and hookah as ‘dakshina' for yoga.

Ramdev, who taught inmates to stay fit also met actor Sanjay Dutt.

"You are in jail because in the heat of the moment your actions led to some unwarranted acts. Many years ago, there were several people who created problems for me. Some of the ‘gangsters' in UP who had sought treatment at our yoga camps for medical ailments used to tell me, ‘let us take care of those who are against you' (Aapka nuksaan kiya hain, hum un logo ko patka denge)," Ramdev was quoted as saying in an Indian Express report.

"But I told them that I have never raised my hand on anybody and instead, developed the strength through yoga and meditation to forgive others. This can be done only after you learn to control your anger, " Ramdev Further added.

After Yoga session, bhajans were enjoyed.

Alongwith jail inmates Ramdev also met Bollywood actor Sanjay Dutt, who is serving five-year sentence at the Yerawada central prison in Pune for illegal possession and destruction of an AK-56 rifle in 1993 serial blasts case. As per reports, Dutt will be released on February 25.

"Dutt looked calm and composed, and told me he has attended some of my workshops. All he told me was to pray for him," Ramdev was quoted as saying in th ereport.
