PP Pandey dismissed by Akhara
The main controversy in this entire case was that the saints who gave initiation to PP Pandey in jail have been called 'fake saints'. According to the Akhara, these saints had no official connection with the Akhara, and an investigation was conducted on the basis of which initiation was given. Mahant hari Giri Maharaj of Juna Akhara clarified that the underworld don has been dismissed from the Akhara, and it has also been ensured that in future such controversial persons will be avoided from being associated with the Akhara.
