Yoga guru Ramdev has demanded public hanging of the killers of a 21-year-old woman outside her college in Haryana’s Ballabgarh, terming the murder as a case of “love jihad”.

The killings in the name of “love jihad” in different parts of the country are “shameful and a blot on the name of India”, he said.

“Public hanging of the accused alone can prevent reiteration of such crimes,” the yoga guru told reporters here after a religious function held at the Patanjali Yogpeeth on Thursday.
