Bhaniara denies he wrote Bhavsagar Granth - Chandigarh - City - The Times of India
fatehgarh sahib:leaders of different political parties used to visit my dera for votes.they wanted to use my influence on my followers during elections. this was said by piara singh bhaniara in an exclusive interview to the times of india,on wednesday. he claimed that punjab agriculture minister gurdev singh badal had visited his dera three-four times before the jagraon function which was also attended by him.
bhaniara further disclosed that gurdev singh badal had asked him to extend support as he wanted to field his son from jagraon constituency. when asked about his bhavsagar samundar granth, bhaniara said his followers had written the granth. he categorically denied he had written any thing for the book. in a picture in the book, he is shown starting writing the granth on june 1, 2000, with his wife kusum devi seen sitting beside him. on efforts being made to establish the granth as a parallel to any other holy scripture, he said it was only due to those efforts that he was facing opposition these days. he said that the incidents narrated in the book were since 1984. in response to another question, he admitted that he was projected as satguru and his sons as sahibzadas, but he held his followers responsible for it. do you think you are a god as presented in the bhavsagar granth? the man who was presenting himself as “possessor of all virtues” said,“i am the dust of the people’s feet.”
