Several Bollywood celebrities too twitter to condemn the arson and violence by Dera Baba Ram Rahim followers in Punjab, Haryana and Delhi-Ncr, and urged them to maintain a peace.
Violence broke out in Punjab and Haryana post the verdict, which claimed 28 lives and left 250 injured.
Bollywood stars such as Anupam kher , Raveena Tandon, Farhan Akthar and other have praised the Court’s judgement against Dera Chief Baba Ram Rahim.
Violence is what #GurmeetRamRahimSingh seems to have taught his followers. This is nonsense & Govt. needs to use full force to STOP it NOW.
