Four members of a family in Ananthpur village of Belagavi district and five others from different States who had announced “sacrificing their lives” reportedly under the influence of a “cult guru” have been convinced by another seer and officials to withdraw their decision.
The announcement was made by Tukaram Irakar, his wife Savitri, son Ramesh and daughter-in-law Vaishnavi from Ananthpur in Athani taluk of Belagavi district and five others that they would sacrifice their lives on September 8. They were reportedly followers of a cult guru named “Baba Rampal” of Haryana and inspired by his discourse, wanted to end their lives as they believed that “Baba” would help them get salvation.
