Well, it's been a while since there's been fresh news from India about the financial fraud scandal involving the guru of Radha Soami Satsang Beas, Gurinder Singh Dhillon.
But today a commenter on this blog shared a link to a recent story in the New Indian, "As Dabur eyes Religare, Punjab's Radha Soami chief took ₹1006 cr, company to police." I've shared the text of the story below. Click on the preceding link to see the documents included with the story.
Some of the story is old news. However, the complaints submitted to the Delhi Police by Religare's current management and Malvinder Singh are new. For those who don't know how much 1006 crore rupees is in dollars, it's a bit over $120 million. So a substantial amount of money is alleged to have been illegally diverted from Religare by the RSSB guru.
That allegation has been the subject of previous stories in the Indian financial press. Now it looks like those allegations may be investigated more seriously. I also checked Google News to see if there were any other recent stories about Gurinder Singh Dhillon's fraud accusations. There was. You can read that story after the one from the New Indian.

NEW DELHI: The ongoing spat between billionaire brothers, Malvinder Singh and Shivinder Singh, who once together ran Fortis Healthcare and Ranbaxy Laboratories, has taken a sharp twist after a complaint before Delhi Police has directly named Radha Soami Satsang Beas Gurinder Singh Dhillon known as Babaji for illegally benefitting, conspiring and diverting funds more than Rs 1000 crores from Religare.
The New Indian has accessed all relevant documents related to this complaint at a time when Burman family, the promoter of Dabur — India’s leading consumer goods company, has mysteriously made an open offer in public to raise its stake to 26 % in Religare. Dabur family already has a holding of 21.5 % in Religare Enterprises Limited.
The open offer would bring fresh consideration of Rs 2,116 crore.
These sensational charges, asking the police to probe the Dera head, have been made in two different plaints, one submitted by Religare’s current management and second by Malvinder himself.
“Pursuant to being appointed, the new professional board and management has realised that REL and its subsidiaries were in terrible financial condition and it sought to ascertain the reasons for the same. Through internal enquiries conducted….the new management found that there was widespread illegal siphoning of funds from REL and its subsidiaries…..” the complaint by Religare, on October 6, before Delhi Police reads.
“Role of Gurinder Singh Dhillon, Alok Rai Rajpur, and Yuraj Narain Gorwaney, needs to be investigated who conspired and illegally benefitted by causing wrongful cause of RFL by executing deed of Asola Land, already mortgaged with RFL”.
In the same complaint, the Religare company’s vice president Manpreet Singh Suri, has also sought probe against Shivinder’s wife Aditi for allegedly paying illegal gratification of Rs 200 crore to jailed conman Sukesh Chandrasekhar to “bribe public servants for obtaining bail of her husband from the judicial custody”.
Supreme Court had last year jailed both Malwinder and Shivinder while Malwinder had this year in June secured a bail.
In a separate complaint, Malvinder too had told Delhi Police, that he requested the Dera baba to settle the loans extended by Religare or its subsidiaries to Gurinder Dhilllon and his family members including his son as the total outstanding of Religare had reached up to Rs 5,400 crores.
[NOTE: That's $650 million, roughly, a huge amount of money.]
The complaint also said that six firms, as subsidiaries of Religare, were used by Shivinder to aid Gurinder in Punjab’s Beas, and his associates in achieving his goal.
These six companies are Best Healthcare Private Ltd, Modland Wears Private Ltd, Fern Healthcare Private Ltd, Devera Developers Pvt Ltd, Green Line Buildwell Pvt Ltd, and Adept Lifespaces Pvt Ltd and acquired these firms without proper due diligence.
The deposits made from these companies were as follows. Modland was used to divert Rs 223 crore, Devera gave Rs 122.6 crore, Fern Healthcare handed over Rs 292.5, Best health care deposited Rs 207, Adept and Rosestar gave Rs 152.8 and Rs 8 crore to Dera baba’s family members: Gurinder Dhillon (himself), Gurkirat, Gurpreet Dhillon, Shabnam Dhillon ( Dera baba’s wife).
“Shivinder frequently shuttled between the Radha Soami Satsang headquarters in Beas and Delhi in the period leading up to December 2017. He was deeply involved in senior-level affairs. The accused plotted a cunning scheme to divert RHC’s funds and absorb Gurinder Singh Dhillon’s debts and dues, leaving RHC with liabilities and stripping it of all assets, transferring them to Gurinder Singh Dhillon,” the complaint has said.
The complaint recalls Dera Beas’s entry into Religare group through Gurinder’s relative, Sunil Godhwani.
According to Malvinder’s complaint, Sunil and Gurinder were helping the company grow, but they were allegedly conspiring to deceive him and the firm.
The complaint further alleges that in December 2017, Shivinder, while misusing his position in RHC, concealed the precarious financial status of the six companies whose money were allegedly transferred into Radha Soami family members.
Later, Malvinder discovered only through an auditor appointed to audit the accounts of these six firms that they were burdened with debt, his submission before Delhi Police has said.
In fact, the Complainant (Malvinder) believes that, in his ambition to become the next spiritual leader of the Radha Soami Satsang Beas, Shivinder unilaterally signed a purported ‘family settlement’ with Gurinder Singh Dhillon, absolving Gurinder of any wrongdoing and agreeing that no liabilities, legal proceedings, or criminal charges would be attributed to Gurinder under any circumstances,” the complaint reads.
Delhi Police Special CP EOW, Shalini Singh, did not comment on the investigation.
Malwinder confirmed that the police was probing the matter.
Here's another story on this subject from the MillenniumPost, "Radha Soami Satsang Beas head accused of illegally diverting Rs 1oo6 cr from Religare."

New Delhi: In a startling turn of events, the ongoing feud between billionaire brothers, Malvinder Singh and Shivinder Singh, who previously held influential positions at Fortis Healthcare and Ranbaxy Laboratories, has taken a dramatic twist.
A formal complaint filed with the Delhi Police has directly implicated Gurinder Singh Dhillon, also known as Babaji, the spiritual leader of Radha Soami Satsang Beas, in a web of alleged illegal activities, conspiracy, and the unauthorised diversion of over Rs 1000 crores from financial conglomerate Religare.
These allegations have prompted a comprehensive investigation by the police and stem from two separate complaints, one filed by Religare and the other by Malvinder Singh himself.
The complaint submitted by Religare on October 6 unveils a concerning picture: “Upon taking the reins, the new professional board and management uncovered the distressing financial state of REL and its subsidiaries, leading them to delve into the root causes. Internal inquiries unveiled a widespread and unauthorised drainage of funds from REL and its subsidiaries.”
At this juncture, The Millennium Post has secured access to vital documents related to this complaint. This development occurs in parallel with the Burman family, esteemed promoters of Dabur, one of India’s foremost consumer goods giants, making a cryptic public offer to acquire Religare.
The complaint underscores the urgency of investigating the roles played by Gurinder Singh Dhillon, Alok Rai Rajpur, and Yuraj Narain Gorwaney, who are accused of conspiring and benefiting unlawfully at the expense of RFL through a transaction involving Asola Land, a property already mortgaged with RFL.
Within the same complaint, Religare’s Vice President, Manpreet Singh Suri, has also called for an inquiry into allegations against Shivinder’s wife, Aditi, involving an alleged illegal gratification of Rs 200 crore to the jailed crook Sukesh Chandrasekhar, aimed at influencing public servants for her husband’s release from judicial custody. Both Malvinder and Shivinder Singh were imprisoned by the Supreme Court last year. However, Malvinder secured his release in June this year.
In a separate complaint, Malvinder informs the Delhi Police of his attempt to seek resolution with Gurinder Dhillon, the spiritual leader of the Dera, regarding the outstanding loans extended by Religare and its subsidiaries to Gurinder Dhillon and his family members, amassing a staggering Rs 5,400 crores.
The complaint suggests that six companies, subsidiaries of Religare, were employed by Shivinder to assist Gurinder and his associates in their financial pursuits. It has also been alleged that in December 2017, Shivinder, while exploiting his position in RHC, disguised the treacherous financial status of six companies.
Subsequently, an auditor appointed to scrutinize the accounts of these six firms discovered that they were buried under a mountain of debt, having extended financial assistance to Gurinder, his family, or companies operated by them, totalling a staggering Rs 1006.3 crore.
The complainant (Malvinder), contends that Shivinder, driven by his aspiration to ascend as the future spiritual leader of the Radha Soami Satsang Beas, unilaterally executed a purported ‘family settlement.’ This settlement absolved Gurinder Singh Dhillon of any alleged wrongdoing and stipulated that Gurinder would be shielded from any liabilities, legal actions, or criminal charges.
Delhi Police Special CP EOW, Shalini Singh, refrained from providing comments on the ongoing investigation, maintaining a stance of official discretion. Malvinder, however, has confirmed that the police are actively investigating the matter.
sant64, the RSSB secretary said that Gill would attend satsang with Dhillon, the current guru. That didn't happen, according to the WhatsApp message. Gill was at a satsang all by himself. So this is why the person who sent the message said that RSSB has two gurus now. It wasn't me that made that claim, it was someone who attended the Gill-only satsang.
Here's an excerpt from a news story that I quoted from in a previous post:
https://hinessight.blogs.com/church_of_the_churchless/2024/09/lets-make-sense-of-the-strange-rssb-guru-succession-episode.html
----------------------------
Devender Kumar Sikri, secretary of the RSSB, said Gill would eventually be the Sant Satguru and will then have the authority of bestowing ‘Naam Daan’. “Till then, he will remain in attendance with Babaji (Dhillon) for the scheduled satsangs,” he said.
