The Rajasthan HC has asked yoga guru Ramdev to appear on October 5 at Barmer's Chohtan police station for questioning.

An FIR has been filed against him for allegedly hurting religious sentiments while extending the stay of his arrest.

The court directed Ramdev to appear before the Investigating Officer as and when called by him.

They also asked the government counsel to produce the case diary in the court on October 16. It extended the stay of Ramdev's arrest.

Justice Kuldeep Mathur gave these directions on Monday while hearing a criminal miscellaneous petition by Ramdev praying for the quashing of the FIR.

“The petitioner is directed to appear before the Investigating Officer for interrogation on 05.10.2023  at  11.30  am.

The court held the arrest of Ramdev during the previous hearing and directed him to appear before the investigating officer on or before May 20.

But he did not appear there.

The complaint was filed against Baba Ramdev at Chohtan police station in Barmer on February 5 by Pathai Khan for allegedly making remarks against Muslims at a religious event on February 2 which was held in Barmer.
