1983-2011 Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 New Delhi, May 5 : BJP's firebrand sannyasin Uma Bharti has sparked a fresh row over why Hindu spiritual gurus like Nirmal Baba are questioned, while Christian faith healers like Paul Dhinakaran are allowed to mint money in an unfettered manner. The self-proclaimed faith healer Paul Dhinakaran is popular in southern India, and is reportedly the owner of a massive Rs 5,000 crore empire. Speaking to reporters in Nagpur and Allahabad recently, Uma Bharti termed the criticism of Nirmal Baba as wrong, saying only Hindu spiritual leaders are being singled out for criticism. "Why are spiritual leaders from other religions such as Paul Dhinakaran not being targeted," she said. She said, "I am not defending nor opposing Nirmal Baba, but attempts are being made to defame Nirmal Baba. It is wrong to do anything that will dent people's faith in spiritual healers." Bharati's comments came in the wake of a spate of complaints of fraud against Nirmaljeet Singh Nirula, alias Nirmal Baba, who is also a close relative of former Jharkhand assembly Speaker Inder Singh Namdhari, who however says, has no links with his brother-in-law. Uma Bharti questioned Paul Dhinakaran, who is an Indian Christian faith healer and chancellor of Karunya University. He is the son of the evangelist D. G. S. Dhinakaran and runs the evangelist ministry Jesus Calls. Bharti said Dhinakaran is also known to be holding similar congregations and nobody raises a voice against him. Paul Dhinakaran has been accused of religious conversion in various parts of South India. Uma Bharati said, only Hindus were targeted over questionable practices in the name of religion. "I do not wish to say anything on Nirmal Baba issue, neither in favour of him nor against him. But I do feel there is a widespread tendency to target Hindus when it comes to questionable practices in the name of religion," Bharati said. She added, "there are several instances of congregations being held by religious leaders from other faiths where they reportedly perform miracles to alleviate the sufferings of their followers. Such gatherings, which bear a striking similarity to the Nirmal Darbar, are held in the US. A well-known evangelist from South India is also known to be holding similar congregations. But nobody raises a voice against them. That is something I cannot approve of." "Even on the question of animal sacrifice, there has been a lot of diatribe against the Hindu practice of bali (sacrifice), though it is well-known that some other major religions of the world are also known to indulge in slaughter of animals on a large scale for celebration of festivals, Bharati said adding "why is it that it is always the Hindus who are placed in the dock?" In an investigation by India TV team, it was found that Paul Dhinkaran offers Business Blessings Plan on his website promising widom, wealth and prosperity. Businessmen are asked to enrol with Dhinakaran's Jesus Calls ministry and part with annual donations, or monthly donations from their earnings. In the website, Dhinakaran claims that Jesus Christ came in his dreams on March 14, 2008 to say that the New Age has dawned and the old age is over with the passing away of his (Dhinakaran's) father. Dhinakaran offers to perform special prayers for businesses, once they are enrolled with the Business Blessings Plan. Uma Bharati says all this is " business in the name of magic". In his public meetings, attended by thousands, Paul Dhinakaran claims to have made people with hearing disability to hear, people with vision disability to see, and those with walking disability to walk normally. All these claims are yet to be scientifically tested. Dhinakaran also promises to get rid of evil from the souls of people. "You can also become God's angel", he promises. http://www.indiatvnews.com/news/India/Why-Nirmal-Baba-alone-why-not-Paul-Dhinakaran-asks-Uma-Bharti-15952.html

1983-2011 Posted May 6, 2012 Author Posted May 6, 2012 'Nirmal Darbar' a trust and spiritual program run by Nirmal Baba came under media and legal attacks because of its allegedly fraudulent activities and for charging exorbitant sums of money from people claiming to solve their problems with the help of self proclaimed "divine powers" and solutions through eating certain things like rabdi, pani-puri etc. Soon after the media criticism, his Facebook page was flooded with comments from supporters and fans. Later it was revealed that those followers were also fake and paid for. A couple from Ludhiana, Baba's home town also filed a police complaint against him for duping them financially. Following the media uproar and fall in popularity, Baba moved the Delhi High Court against a website called Indijobs and an unknown hubber. The court ruled in his favor and ordered for the defamatory content to be pulled down till the next hearing. It also asked to reveal the hubber's identity. During further investigations, as revealed on 15 April 2012, Nirmal Baba had invested the donations collected in his samagam and daswant into buying a hotel worth INR30 crore (US$5.99 million) in Greater Kailash area of New Delhi. Nirmal Baba was involved in mining of Kyanite from Jyoti Hill, Jharkhand in 1998-1999. After another round of investigations on April 16, 2012, cases of Nirmal Baba's disciples being involved in forgery worth INR1.7 crore (US$339,150) emerged in Ludhiana. An anti-corruption organization recently awarded him the title of best 'Natwarlal'( conman). Popularity of Nirmal Baba is displaying downward trend due to fraud allegations.
