Key Questions Answered
The family of 18-year-old Anuj Chaudhary claims that he came to Vrindavan three months ago to seek initiation from Premanand Maharaj and has not returned since. They alleged that ashram officials refused to talk to them directly or provide clear information about him until public and media pressure increased following the death of another disciple, Rasik Dulari Sharan.
Rasik Dulari Sharan, also known as Deepak Lodhi, died after falling from the fourth-floor roof of the Guru Kripa Kunj ashram building. After the fall, he was rushed to a private hospital where doctors declared him dead. Police and forensic teams later recovered a tile-cutting electrical grinder with bloodstains from his room alongside suspicious injuries.
Families of both Rasik Dulari Sharan and Anuj Chaudhary have accused the ashram administration of being overly restrictive and uncooperative. Relatives reported being made to wait outside for days without being allowed to meet the disciples or receiving proper updates when tragic incidents occurred, sparking demands for a transparent investigation.
