Not on Agripath but Agriveer should walk on the path of Yoga

On the Agniveer episode, Swamiji Maharaj said that youth should be patient, and they should move not on Agneepath but on the path of Yoga. Movement on the path of Yoga is also non-violent. There should be non-violent movements, non-violent religion, non-violent politics, non-violent agriculture, non-violent business and non-violent media, everywhere, walk on the path of yoga, not to pursue the path of Agneepath. The government will do whatever amendment is necessary in the plan on Agneepath. By setting fire, burning the train causes loss to the country, this loss of national property is suicide, this should not be done by any youth. Army soldiers serve the country, the country cannot be served by ruining the country.
