A police complaint was lodged against Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma, spiritual leader Sadhguru and others for allegedly violating wildlife protection laws during their jeep safari after dusk in the Kaziranga National Park the previous day.

In a video that has gone viral, Sadhguru was seen driving a jeep inside the national park on Saturday night with the Assam CM beside him along with some other people.

Two activists in Assam have filed a police complaint against Sadhguru, Assam CM and Mr Baruah alleging they entered the national park - home of the Indian one-horned rhino - much beyond the scheduled visit time on Saturday.

The activists claimed the Wildlife Protection Act, 1972, bans safari tours inside the national park after a scheduled time to protect the animals and keep their habitat relatively untouched.

Activists Soneswar Narah and Prabin Pegu, who filed the complaint with the Golaghat district police, said action should be taken against them under the Wildlife Protection Act.
