Shillong, February 14, 2010:
Criticising the continuance of the Armed Forces (Special Powers) Act in Manipur, Yoga guru Baba Ramdev today said "security forces cannot kill people without reason".
"Security forces cannot kill people without reason.
The Centre should deal with the issue more sensitively," Ramdev said in response to a query.
Asked if he had any message for the militant outfits in the North-East, Ramdev quipped, "we are all Indians.
Both militants and we are trying to change the political system but in different ways.
They want to change the system, so do I and the only difference is that they adopt violent means and I take to yogic measures".
"Trying to do it (effect change in society) through violent means is not right," he said.
Mention may be made that AFSPA affected areas have been continuously demanding for total repeal of AFSPA but the state has conspired to silence their voices.
