The National Commission for Women Wednesday issued a notice to yoga guru Ramdev for his remarks on Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi and Dalits.
Ramdev said in Lucknow Friday: "He (Rahul Gandhi) goes to Dalits' houses for honeymoon and picnic." He apologized Saturday, saying he was misinterpreted.
The commission however sent a notice to Ramdev seeking an explanation of his remarks within three days.
"His remarks hurt the dignity and sentiments of Dalit women. What he said is highly condemnable," a commission member said.
