During Today's Mann Ki Baat, Prime Minister Narendra Modi didn't approve the violence created by the followers of self-styled godman Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh following his conviction in a rape case. He made it clear violence in the name of faith won't be tolerated and any person/outfit breaking the law willn't be spared.

The Special CBI court on Friday pronounced the verdict of rape case involving Ram Rahim Singh. After the godman was declared guilty of raping two his Sadhvis in 2002, Dera Sacha Sauda Followers resorted to riots and vandalism. At least 36 people were killed and nearly 300 other were injured in the clashes. 28 out of the 36 deceased were from Panchkula, where CBI Court pronounced verdict, itself. So far, Over 500 people were arrested in Panchkula. Several vehicles, rifles and pistols have been seized.

On Monday, Quantum of punishment for Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh will be delivered in Rohtak District Prison. How would be the situation after the final verdict? Are the Centre & State Governments ready to handle the consequences as Dera Chief is expected to receive a jail sentence of at least 7 years or life imprisonment?
