Key Questions Answered

Following the suspicious death of Deepak Lodhi Patel, also known as Rasik Dulari Sharan, who fell from the fourth floor of the ashram in Vrindavan, his family questioned the circumstances of his death. Citing his calm, non-addictive, and deeply religious nature, the family rejected theories of suicide and demanded an impartial, high-level CBI inquiry into the incident.

Originally from Parswara-Jamtra village in Jabalpur, Deepak was religious from childhood and completed a graduate degree after finishing school. Approximately three years ago, during the Narmada Parikrama, he met Saint Bhaiya Ji Sarkar, which deepened his spiritual inclination. About two years ago on Radha Ashtami, he left worldly life for Vrindavan, where he received the name 'Rasik Dulari Sharan' and served in the ashram.

Upon hearing the shocking news of Deepak's death from the ashram, his father Chaitram Lodhi's health deteriorated due to chest pain, though his condition later stabilized. Meanwhile, his mother, brother, and other relatives traveled from Jabalpur to Vrindavan, where they faced distress and raised serious questions regarding access restrictions and the overall handling of the situation by the ashram management.
