"People of criminal tendency are being recruited In RSS, Bajrang Dal and crimes are committed by them. People are thrashed in the name of religion," said Meghwal while talking to the media at the state Congress headquarters in Jaipur on Wednesday.

'RSS tearing apart the Constitution'

Meghwal said that the government will take action if the crime is committed in the name of Bajrang Dal or by raising slogans of Jai Shri Ram.
