Would Mahatma Gandhi also 've flown out of India on such a day as did Congress Party President & her deputy Sonia & Rahul Gandhi respectively? Did Mahatma Gandhi misused Ram nam/dhun to further congress & it's ideology? If the answer to this question is negative then why accuse Modi of adoptng yoga for promoting party. What are Mahatma Ganhi's views on Religion & Politics ? To find answers to such questions & many more resulting from daily scenes of acrimonious disputes being witnessed in Indian polity we need to delve a little deeper :
"To see the universal and all-pervading Spirit of Truth face to face one must be able to love the meanest of creation as oneself. And a man who aspires after that cannot afford to keep out of any field of life. That is why my devotion to Truth has drawn me into the field of politics; and I can say without the slightest hesitation, and yet in all humility, that those who say that religion has nothing to do with politics do not know what religion means."
(Autobiography:Mahatma Gandhi)
I claim that human mind or human society is not divided into watertight compartments called social, political and religious. All act and react upon one another.
The politician in me has never dominated a single decision of mine, and if I seem to take part in politics, it is only because politics encircle us today like the coil of a snake from which one cannot get out, no matter how much one tries. I wish, therefore, to wrestle with the snake as I have been doing with more or less success consciously since 1894, unconsciously, as I have now discovered, ever since reaching years of discretion. Quite selfishly, as I wish to live in peace in the midst of a bellowing storm howling round me, I have been experimenting with myself and my friends by introducing religion into politics.
(Young India:Mahatma Gandhi)

As evident from India's Map, in 1919 & this holds till his mysterious & much propagandized death that he could never have thought of China as a neighbour in north.
Cong & pseudosecular should stop Apni Dafli Apna Besura Rag & join the nation whom world wants to lead ! Yog pe hrr waqt jali-kati sunane vale aur Modi pr yog ki politics ka dosh lgane vale khud gandi poltics khel rahen hain .
Km se km sb ko jodne vale Yog pe to ikttha ho hi sakte hain . Yadi Congress ne Yog Guru pr Ravan-Leela naki hoti aur jhutte cases na dalkr Indira Gandhi aur Modi ki tarah Yog ki sharan li hoti toh uski aisi durdasha nhi hoti .

Bharat ke yog-virodhi; communist China se hi seekh len.
Here's a qoute :
"One impetus for this effort is the Communist Party’s embrace of traditional culture as “a foundation for China to compete in the world,” The article further adds,"Having for decades viewed antiquities as relics of feudal oppression and bourgeois decadence, the party now says art can “lead people to live a life abiding by the code of morality,” in that way contributing to social stability."
