The National Commission for Scheduled Castes Sunday slammed yoga guru Ramdev for visiting the house of a teenaged girl, gang-raped by five constables of the Chandigarh Police.
Commission vice chairman Raj Kumar Verka said Ramdev had hurt the sentiments of the rape victim's family by visiting her home.
Verka who met the victim's family at an undisclosed location, said Ramdev's visit revealed the identity of the victim.
He directed the Chandigarh Police to submit a detailed report of the rape incident and the action taken to the commission at the earliest.
"Ramdev should not have gone to her house since her's is a sensitive issue," Verka told the media here.
Ramdev visited the victim's home Saturday and assured help.
