Security Concerns and Allegations Surface Around Premanand Maharaj's AshramPreviousNext

Concerns have arisen over the security of spiritual leader Premanand Maharaj following allegations of criminal activities and land disputes within his Keli Kunj Ashram in Vrindavan. Falahari Maharaj and Dinesh Sharma have claimed that two factions exist: genuine saints and others involved in illegal operations, prompting calls for a CBI probe and increased protection. Premanand Maharaj reportedly distanced himself from the ashram amid these tensions. Religious figures have exchanged conflicting statements, emphasizing the need for investigation and caution in assigning blame.
