Mahakumbh 2025: IIT-Alumni Baba Expelled from Juna Akhara, Sages Accuse Mahant Someshwar Puri of Disrespect

In a shocking development before Mahakumbh 2025, Baba Abhay, an IIT alumnus, has been expelled by the revered Juna Akhara. He was expelled for his open defiance of ascetic norms of traditional conduct and disrespect to his guru, Mahant Someshwar Puri.

Hates Conformity and Betrays Trust

As sanyas was a sacred tradition, the guru was both parent and god in the eyes of that tradition. Yet, Baba Abhay not only deviated from this tradition but also betrayed his guru's trust when he was unable to reform even after being shifted from one camp to another on several occasions for rehabilitation.

Action that led to expulsion

Chief Guardian of Juna Akhara, Hari Giri, declared that Baba Abhay's actions were a serious breach of the long-standing traditions of the akhara. During a recent press conference, Hari Giri underlined, "Sannyasis hold deep reverence for their peers and regard their gurus as embodiments of the divine. Baba Abhay's actions have disrupted this sanctity, leaving us with no choice but to expel him from Juna Akhara.

Baba Abhay had also been allegedly intoxicated and speaking disrespectful things about his parents and his guru, Mahant Someshwar Puri. In addition, he has also made public accusations against Mahant Someshwar Puri, alleging that it was out of jealousy over Baba Abhay's rising popularity that he had him expelled. Insiders at the akhara claim that even after repeated advice from fellow sannyasis to keep decorum and devotion towards the guru, Baba Abhay did not listen but remained obstinate and defiant.
