Nirmal Baba exposed as a fraud?

 Nirmal Baba exposed as a fraud?
Another controversy involving Godmen, Rs 109 crore was found deposited in Nirmal Baba’s two bank accounts in just three months, according to a report published in Prabhat Khabar a Jharkhand daily on Friday. 
 The report further said that Nirmal Baba asks for 10 percent of the salary from all those who visit him for solutions to their problems. Post this diclosure, Baba’s bank account has come under scanner where transactions are made from all over the country. 

Nirmal Baba charges Rs 2,000 from every participant who wishes to be a part of his commune, 'samagam'. This amount is trasferred directly into Nirmal Baba's three bank acconts — one each in Punjab National Bank, ICICI Bank and Yes Bank. As per estimates Nirmal Darbar has an annual turnover of approximately 84 crore rupees.

Nirmal Baba holds two accounts - one in the name of Nirmaljeet Singh Narula (Nirmal Baba's real name), and the other in the name of 'Nirmal Darbar'.

Sushma Narula, Nirmal Baba's wife, is registered as the nominee. Prabhat Khabar claims that Nirmal Baba transferred Rs 53 crores from one of these accounts into a private bank.

Meanwhile, Nirmal Baba told a news channel, “I never asked people to deposit money to solve their problems. I never assured them of any magical solution to their woes.”

He also added, “Our aim is not to spread superstition but to lessen it and we don’t provide any amulet, talisman or good luck charm to our devotees.”

He said all the allegations against him were baseless and he was ready to undergo a lie-detector test to prove himself right.

He explained, “I have been paying my income tax regularly. My annual turnover is Rupees 235 crore.”

"People consider God’s blessings as magic and they have godly experience at Nirmal darbar. My promises have passed through the litmus test of science", he added.

He also mentioned that he utilizes the money deposited by his devotees only in the expenditure of samagams and advertising. People send money according to their own veneration.
