He said the members and followers would neither indulge in any violence nor violate law, but would launch a massive campaign against the Congress.

Kumar said, "Our basic objective is to serve the people of Himachal, but it appears that the Congress high command is against the common masses."

He said the government should also realise that the land leased out to Yogpeeth, the investment of over Rs 10 crore and other resources of the trust originally belonged to common people, hence, cancellation of lease was an enough indication that a particular faction of the Congress was against the common man.
