Prominent lawyer wants to know why Sant Shree Asaramji Bapu was booked under IPC

The question that has been raking the consciousness of millions around the world will not be subdued unless we have an answer from the judiciary and law enforcement - and the question is why was Sant Shree AsaramJi Bapu arrested under POCSO and IPC 376 when the medical report said nothing about grievous injuries that are always associated with rapes? No one wants to answer and that has only strengthened our belief in the fact that bigger powers are at play against our Saintly BapuJi.

BM Gupta who is a prominent lawyer in Gujurat was interacting with Sadhaks through a popular TV channel where he raised the same question we have been asking all these months.

Our world is on the verge of destruction because it is under the burden of crimes and sins committed by million sinners. If not for the Holy Saints like BapuJi, destruction was inevitable long ago. The lawyer also goes on to explain the fact behind the death of Dipesh and Abhishek. It must be noted that the murder case of these kids was laid on BapuJi, whereas in reality, these two kids had wandered off on that faithful day and took a bath in the swelling river that was full with flood waters. The unfortunate kids lost their lives purely to an accident and not what the media is trying to insinuate.

The reason for BapuJi's incarceration is his great humanitarian works he has done in Jharkhand and Gujurat to bring Hindus back into the fold. BapuJi provides financial aid and food to people who belong to backward sections of the society. This puts him at loggerheads with the Christian missionaries that have been converting Hindus to Christianity. For too long they were defeated in their motives by our Saintly BapuJi. Only recently they found an ally who agreed to level false allegations.

Given the reports and circumstantial evidences, the lawyer strongly believes that there must have been a different reason for jailing BapuJi and he wants to know why.

What action has been taken against unbiased news channels - The nation needs answers

How media and law has handled AsaramJi Bapu case is now known to all, there are no secrets as to how news channels painted BapuJi in the wrong hue and made a villain out of an upright saintly person driven completely by ulterior motives. Millions of Bapu's disciples were shocked and awed at this but what even more abhorring was how these media channels branded an innocent family as sex racket operators and showed a minor as a victim of sexual exploitation. This disgusting sacrifice of moral ethics on the altar of money was too much and the pain it caused to the innocent Sadhak family was harrowing.

What was the truth?

On 2nd July, 2013, Sant Shree AsaramJi Bapu arrived at the household of the complainant for Pag Phera ceremony and blessed his family which included the complainant's wife and his 10 year old niece. It must be noted that the media channels targeted these two females specifically by accusing the wife of running a sex racket and saying that the niece was a victim of BapuJi.

The family had to take action, it approached police and lodged a complaint against News 24 at the Palam Vihar police station but nothing came of it. Protests were carried out for 3 days from 14th Dec to 16 Dec, yet the police did nothing at all.

The complaint was completely cold shouldered and nothing came of it. Following this set back, the media victimized family formally decided to lodge an FIR at the same police station. This time two additional channels were brought under the purview of the FIR taking the total to three which now included News Nation, India TV and News 24. The charges that were invoked against these channels are: IPC 469, 471, 120B, 671 IT Act and 13(C) POCSO. It has been three days since and we are yet to see any positive outcome. Will the media or the law enforcement come up with an explanation as to why nothing has been done to nab the people named in the said FIR of 16th December, 2013?

Contrasts in how law enforcement and media handled Bapuji case and those of others

Law enforcement forces in a democracy are expected to be impartial and unbiased in their job and for most part they, exceptions arise when strong political forces are at play, calling shots from behind the curtain. Many times in the past we have disparities in the carriage of law and some of these have been very high profile ones that force us to sit up and take cognizance.

Case in point here is Sant Shree AsaramJi Bapu the holy Hindu Saint who has done so much for the poor and downtrodden of our nation and yet the media chose to crucify him without looking for reasons or logic, which is not only pathetic and silly but also belittling of our cultural heritage because this is a direct attack on an important religious figure of the nation. In what appears to be a controversy of with an anti-nationalist innuendo, BapuJi was implicated in a false rape cases. The law enforcement swings into action and swoops him up spectacularly. Thereafter, he is confined in jails and subjected to humiliation and hardships that are meted to hardened criminals.

This was just the beginning, soon after media doubled its effort to malign and bring disrepute to the name of AsaramJi Bapu and later even his son. It was clear that anti-BapuJi forces were at play here and media was happily playing second fiddle in spreading false news about Bapu and everyone else connected to him. The aggression which media and law enforcement displayed was extraordinary in many aspects. To begin with media took for granted that Pujya Shree AsaramJi Bapu was guilty and there was nothing to prevent the downfall of an innocent man who is considered a saint by millions of his followers all over the globe. In the days that followed more such false news was spread unstopped. Only recently has the NBSA heeded to these outrageous incidents and pulled the leash on TRP hungry news channels for spreading wrong information. In a very recent case, three news channels, India TV, News Nation and News 24 were taken to task by a family that was falsely portrayed as willing participants of sex rackets and scandals that are totally unfounded and false.

In stark contrast, several criminal cases of similar nature are pending in court that require attention but for reasons best known to law enforcement forces, these cases do not get as much importance as the bogus case against Bapu is getting. One very recent example of this is the Gurgaon Sadhak family case. On 16th December, a family lodged an FIR against three news channels viz: News 24, India News and News Nation for showing morphed video on national TV, implicating them of being involved in salacious scams involving the Bapu. 13(C) POCSO, IPC 469, 471, 120B and 671 IT acts were invoked but no action has been taken against the CEOs of the news channel yet. The question we ask today - why such disparity in carriage of legal action. There is no doubt in our mind that some deep conspiracy is at play against Sant Shree AsaramJi Bapu.

Complain fails to move police, Family victimized by media now files fir expecting Justice

In one after another, the turn of events that in the last few weeks has come as a welcome breather for Asaram Ji Bapu supporters and sadhaks. The first of them all was the falling from grace of liar Bholanand and Tripathi followed by the clearing of Narayan SaiJi's name as the absconder and lastly unveiling of the duplicity of evidence planned to be presented against Bapu. But all is not well yet and there are still matters that need clearing up and more attention from law enforcement and media. Recently, three national news channels New 24, India News and News Nation showed doctored content insinuating crimes that Sant Shree AsaramJi Bapu had not perpetrated and in the process maligning the name and honour of a family in addition to violating rights of a child!

These grave charges have been brought against the said media channels by a simple sadhak at whose residence his holiness AsaramJi Bapu arrived after a Satsang session for Pag Phera. It must be noted that these three news channels altered a video clip that was recorded in 2 July 2013 and presented it in poor light throughout the day of 12 Dec, 2013.

These channels defiled BapuJi and the entire family of the Sadhak by hinting that they were willing participants in salacious activities. The channels went on to implicate that the women in the family organized sex rackets for BapuJi. This led to untold pain and misery and anguish for the family. Following this the media-victimized family decided to knock at the police's door for justice, but unfortunately the plea was cold shouldered. This cold treatment forced the family to lodge a formal FIR against News Nation, News 24 and India TV for the improper presentation of news and violating rights of a 10 year old girl. The FIR invokes IPC 469, 471, 120B, 671 IT ACT and last but definitely not the least 13(C) POCSO.

It now remains to be seen whether the police will bring in the people accused in the FIR and if it does how long it takes.

Media victimizes innocent girl - Sadhak family lodges complaint against NEWS 24 Channel

As if the harm the skewed media has done till now is not enough, News 24, a popular news channel has gone one step ahead of the rest and defamed an innocent family in its mindless hunger to gain more TRPs, blind to the fact that their action has caused untold anguish and pain to innocent citizens! Sadhaks of AsaramJi Bapu also complained of such biased content being presented in other news channels as well. Notably, India TV and News Nation made repeated telecasts of doctored information through its channels recently.  

Recently India TV, a popular news channel has also been rapped by the National Broadcasting Standards Authority (NBSA) for using derisive language against AsaramJi Bapu, and now this has followed. It should be noted that this recent misrepresentation is a graver offense than using defamatory language against a holy saint because in this case the victim is a teenage child who was portrayed by the media as victim, whereas the truth was far from it!

In the news presentation BapuJi was shown moving his hand over the back of the said girl in what the media described as offensive, but the truth is that BapuJi was blessing her and his actions were comparable to a grandfather patting his grandchild. To gain maximum leverage for their personal sake, the news channel had one of its female journalist analyze the video clip wherein she goes on to accuse BapuJi but seems completely oblivious to the fact that she herself was involved in violating child rights. In their blind pursuit for more TRPs, the said media channel not only pulled an innocent child into the middle of an unnecessary debate but also maligned other women of the household by hinting that women like them organized sexual escapades for Sant Shree AsaramJi Bapu. This is despicable and unexpected from media in a country where it is considered the 4th pillar of democracy.

Unlike most people who would have been scared of raising their voice, this media victim family has come forward with their complaint and invoked 13 (C)POCSO against News 24 for violating the rights of a child. This is high time that we open our eyes to thousands of such unbiased news dished out by the media against AsaramJi Bapu and lodge strong complains against such misrepresentations.

NBSA raps India TV on the knuckle for using derisive language against Asaramji Bapu regarding holi festival celebration

On 6th November, 2013 India TV was served a warning by the NBSA (National Broadcasting Standards Authority) for using derisive language in its reporting of the Holi festival incident in which the channel reported that BapuJi's Holi celebrations were conducted despite the fact some parts of Maharastra was reeling under severe crisis.

This report was carried out by India TV on two dates (17th and 18th March, 2013) on their channel. The language used during the program was potentially defamatory and caused mental anguish to followers of Bapu. In a reaction to that, supporters of Sant Shree AsaramJi Bapu sought an explanation from India TV.

The response from India TV was not satisfactory following which Bapu's followers moved the NBSA for review. On examination of a CD containing the said telecast, NBSA found that indeed the news channel had missed out on following guidelines on a few occasions. In a meeting that was held on 18.9.2013, NBSA decided to warn India TV for the irregularities, this is what was decided in the meeting. "NBSA decided to issue a warning to your channel and any future transgression would be dealt with severely". This was necessary because of blatant defiling of the Bapu and his Ashram by different section of the media ever since he was arrested. The NBSA's stand on the issue is a very welcome breather for Bapu supporters who have been pained endlessly largely because of an insensitive media that had taken upon themselves to ridicule and try BapuJi despite the fact that the matter is sub-judice.

Even Learned Law - Keepers Err

No one is above the law and there have been numerous occasions when law and order has blundered. There is no denying the fact that dispensing justice is not the easiest of task and those in the profession of up-keeping law face a gargantuan task in bringing all to task. But when a big miss comes to light one cannot but stand up and take notice of the matter. With the arrest of AsaramJi Bapu and his son, many are invoking the question - could the law have erred?

In a democratic country, we do posses the right to express our opinions without fear of retribution and clearly no one is in violation of those in question developments since His Holiness AsaramJi Bapu was arrested recently. It is noteworthy that there have been lapses here too, but thankfully remedial action has since been taken. It is not lost to public cognizance that prosecutors gunning against Narayan Sai moved the court and obtained a non-bailable arrest warrant which was later absolved by the court considering the fact that an NBW may not be issued to arrest any person, hence all these time Narayan Sai was falsely labelled an absconder. It is quite ridiculous that a section of the press has taken this and blown it out of proportion to such an extent that the general population began taking this falsity for granted. Thankfully, the recent court stand comes as a welcome breather for BapuJi and his family from the continuous onslaught of propaganda spread by detractors of the spiritual leader.

What we are hinting at is the possibility of more blunders by the court and the law. Given the highly motivated and powerful detractors of BapuJi, one cannot completely rule out deeper conspiracies and conspirators at play here. Sant AsaramJi Bapu has been hinting at the possibility of a conspiracy and given his impressive track record of speaking out against powerful and corrupt politicians, he definitely has some very irate and resourceful enemies. When Congress faced a defeating blow in the recent assembly elections, BapuJi commented that the truth will prevail and it has only begun.

If famous dignitaries like Kanchi seers can stay shrouded in clouds of doubt for 9 long years, we would not be surprised if law takes equally long to come out with the truth.

The Core of Indian Culture Under Attack

History stands witness to the fact that whenever pain has been inflicted on pious souls, nature has replied with a befitting rejoinder. Time and again that has happened and without any exception nature has stood true to its course. Our rich heritage and priceless epics written by sages have uncountable iterations of this phenomenon. Whenever sins, corruption and death have disrupted the balance of nature, a changing force has come to the rescue of the weak. The basic Hindu concept of reincarnation is something which holds true here as well and just as in those good old times, something similar is coming to pass yet again, this time with a modern twist, but there are striking similarities from the past. It is almost as if the history is playing out once again.

If you do recall from chapters of Mahabharata, Kansh the maternal uncle of Lord Krishna, incarnation of Bishnu, dealt a heavy hand to all saints and pious souls of the time, until they could bear no longer and begged for the almighty to come to their rescue. Back then it took long for Lord Krishna to deliver justice and bring about peace. This time round, it has been fairly quick.

The Congress government and what it had been doing at the centre is reminiscent of just that only this time we have seen nature coming back with a deft reply.

Ever since BapuJi was arrested there were indications that the ruling congress party was behind a serious conspiracy and it was evident in every development that unfolded beginning from those women bringing about allegations against BapuJi, and then allegations against Narayan Sai. Then there were uncountable rumours that were never ending. The slew of fake claims did not end at just that, even after the His Holiness AsaramJi Bapu and his kind-hearted son was brought in by the law, media and the corrupt government continued pouring in vitriol on Bapu's reputation. Thankfully that has all come to an end with the rule of corrupt government to an end. With that has ended the blatant attack to our Hindu culture. His Holiness AsaramJi Bapu is a significant pillar of Hindu culture and religion and flinging mud on his honour and doubting his integrity is nothing but dastardly attack on Hinduism. Thankfully the curtain has fallen with congress's loss.
