Correct. The same judicial system has held Isha Foundation guilty of misusing tax exemption status (and even ripped the tax-exempt status from one of his organisations). Just because a report acquits him on grounds lacking evidence, doesn't mean he's innocent. No doubt, this also doesn't means that he's a criminal and should be hanged to death.

Most things he does are an elaborate spiritual scam. Asks people for money, and uses that money to expand his infrastructure and fund his motives and agenda. Makes up stories of Adiyogi and pseudoscientific things and claims to cure ADHD and Cancer. Though it may cure obesity (because obviously, Yoga). Tell me how many you think got rid of their cancer by attending this program? How many people got deluded that this alternate method of curing cancer actually works because of some Godman who's behind it? The website also mentions that they use their own medication (high in metal concentration and unauthorised by traditional medicine society, i believe). Don't you think this is a problem?

Now here's the thing pal.

The FIR states that Vijji's body was cremated (burned). Now Vijji's family members said that there's no ritual for burning a body in their tradition. Yet her body was burned. That too at a very awkward time (the FIR Mentions it). And Vijji's father only received the call after her body was burned

Not to mention that her father testified that Sadhguru was having an affair with one of her apostles and there's a whole different religious angle which says that Vijji cannot attain maha samadhi as she isn't an accomplished yogi.

Now poisioning is an angle, but you cannot do a forensic report as the body is already cremated. That's why the report by the police station acquitted Jaggi from the charges on the grounds of lack of evidence caused by premature cremation of the victim.

There's a lot to the story. I haven't mentioned the timing of these things. I can DM you the copy of the FIR and Report.

There's a FIR and a report by the state police. FIR was filed by Sadhguru's father-in-law but as the body was already cremated, the report concluded that due to lack of evidence, the investigation can't continue.

Lmk if you want the copies of FIR and the Report.

On What Grounds Can An Organisation Loose It's 12A and 80G Exemptions?

I've read the original sections of 12A and 80G but there are a lot of grey areas about what organisation can become and cannot become a 12A and 80G exempted institution.

I've seen some organisations which conduct suspicious operations (like channelling funds or revenue generated through acts of trade or business and showing them as donations or donations being used to facilitate acts of trade and business)

On What Grounds Can An Organisation Loose Its 12A and 80G Exemption (except of course failing to file exemption before the deadline)?

Thanks

Can I file an RTI demanding Form 10B of this organisation?

Thanks.
