Jind: Amid the government's contention that participation in June 21 events to mark International Yoga Day was not "compulsory",a Hindu Mahasabha leader in Haryana today accused the Centre of trying to appease Muslims and asserted that those opposing 'Surya Namskar' have no right to live in the country.

Sadhvi Deva Thakur, former vice president of Haryana Hindu Mahasabha, while talking to reporters, said here the Centre's approach for not making the yoga events "compulsory" was the "biggest failure" of the Narendra Modi government.
