The Supreme Court on Wednesday refused to accept Patanjali Ayurved's Baba Ramdev and Acharya Balkrishna 'unconditional' apology affidavit while warning them to be ready to face action in the contempt case.
The top court that it couldn't let go Ramdev and Balkrishan by simply accepting their apology, emphasising the need for the message to resonate across society not to disregard court orders.
"Tendering apology is not enough. You should suffer the consequences for violating court's order. We do not want to be generous in the case," the apex court said.
The case will be next heard on April 16.
