Swami ji had said,
"When Salman came inside, he gave me 'king of footage' award. He is a chain smoker, so he started smoking in front of me. I said, 'You can't smoke here. This is against the rule, so go to the smoking area'. He was heavily drunk. He told me 'I have a bigger sena than your Hindu Mahasabha.' I asked, 'How?' He said that Hafiz Saeed, Dawood Ibrahim, Masood Azhar and Abu Salem are all his friends and also claimed 'I (Salman) am an ISI agent. I work for them'."

Swami ji had crossed the limit when he had stated that he had caused the earthquake.
