Views of His Holiness Swami Nithyanand Maharaj Mahamandaleshwar of Maha Nirvana Akhada on allegations against Asaramji Bapu


The Mahamandaleshwar of Mahanirvani Peet, Guru Swami Nithyanand Maharaj is one who knows about the accusations and allegations brought against AsaramJi Bapu in the recent past and he has studied the case in great depth and possibly there is no one better to comment on recent developments against AsaramJi Bapu. In 2010, Swami Nithyanand Maharaj was implicated in similar sex crimes and was charged under several IPC sections, one of which was 376 (rape) and 377 (unnatural sex). He was kept in judicial custody for 52 days, at the end of that he was acquitted by the court and his driver was charged for conspiracy. In February, 2013 FIRs against him were quashed by Karnataka High Court. He has been through the challenges of living through false allegations and standing up for his rights and then appealing for justice against the plotters who brought disrepute to his name.

On allegations brought against Bapu, Swami has a lot to say and he bases his observations on detailed study of the entire case. In course of his findings he has consulted with medical experts who opined that a minor's skin is very delicate and any physical assault would have left permanent marks on her skin for at least a few days, but these medical experts did not find any mention of such findings on the girl. After 11 long years the accuser comes ahead with her allegations when she should have done so at the earliest. Suddenly after so many years, it suddenly dawns on her that the time is right to seek justice! Isn't this ridiculous? Even the police knows that this case is not going to hold in court.

“I’m not saying that AsharamJi Bapu is above a law...All I am trying to say is, let's have patience till the court takes a review. Even if you believe that something may have happened, keep quite till the courts decide".
