the trust does provide free treatment to everyone in its hospital or is it not?
This is normal in that part of the world... pirs, babas, gurus et al.
Wow..that's a thumping amount and then some! Hope it will go towards charitable causes.
I like the end line!
Yes ofcourse.. I mentioned every such fraud in my post. He is not Sai Baba by the way, Sai Baba's temple is in Shirdi. Though I think that too is a money spinning operation but please use correct names. He is Sathya Sai
what is the point to collecting money & gold instead of spending that on good deeds or for someone's help.. now govt of india will definitely open a new bank wid the name of "Sai Baba Bank"....hahahahhaha
Why ONLY SAI BABA's assets. Let the govt. confiscate the money from other religious groups as well.
All his assets should be confiscated by the government along with the assets of every such fraud in India.
I hear that the world renowned yogi, Sai Rizks Baba will be opening a facility in Doha to help those in need..
We intend to show our love and appreciation by contributing his weight in gold.. Please PM me for details..
Its become like a common game now, the easiest way is to make a ashram and do all kind of money making tricks, every one come in picture will have one in crores,
The best part is that what ever case they get caught in everything will be closed in 3 to 4 months of time and they will be back in business!!!
When will India stop all this things completely!!!!
If an ordinary man keeps 50 laks rupees at home, he is criminal, undeclared money,Revenue Department, Income Tax department all will rush to the house and start searching the house, media, press, police, jail and what not problems.
All these criminal background people like the so called GODMAN Baba Ramdev, Sri Sri Shankar and so many others can do any damn thing and no one will dare to touch them.
I would have liked to help do the counting.. ;o)
the donations goes to his trust....and thats worth 1.5 lakh crores Indian Rupees...
it depends? If you don't see the fruit of those "donations" then, maybe you're right!
..be from donations..still, the most lucrative business of all - religion...
