Jaipur, Sep 22 (SocialNews.XYZ) Anand Giri, a disciple of Narendra Giri, who has been accused by the seer in his 7-page suicide note, is a native of Rajasthan's Bhilwara district, who left his home at the age of 13.
His father Rameshwar Chotiya still resides in a small home in village Sareri here. He said that Anand was a name given to him later.
"We have named him Ashok. 25 years back, he left home without informing anyone. He was a Class 7 student at that time. We tried searching for him and after a few years, someone informed us that he is in Haridwar.
"We tried searching for him in Haridwar too and traced him in Narendra Giri's ashram. We spoke to the latter, Narendra Giri then brought Anand along with him to our village in 2012. He was given Diksha here in the presence of family members."
Anand Giri's father said that the duo stayed here for an hour and then did not come back. However, Anand Giri came here during his mother's demise five months back.
