Snehesh Alex Philip, the Senior Associate Editor at The Print, tweeted a photo of the incident with the caption, ‘Yoga is a good thing, should be done every day. But below picture of @BSF_India personnel is just not done. Don’t overdo things for the sake of pictures. Making the camel lie down and posing for a camera like this is just not done. Don’t reduce Yoga Day to this.’
