Self-styled godman Suraj Pal, known as Bhole Baba, has a history of legal troubles, including allegations of sexual assault. Despite multiple cases filed against him in various jurisdictions, he continues to have a significant following. Born in Kasganj, Suraj Pal was a former police officer who faced legal troubles in 1997 related to sexual assault allegations and served time in prison. After his release, he reinvented himself as a spiritual leader, attracting devotees to his ashram. Recently, a stampede at his 'satsang' gathering in Hathras resulted in 121 deaths. Bhole Baba's controversial practices and legal troubles have raised concerns among authorities and citizens alike.
