A controversial case has sparked a major stir, leading to increased scrutiny of fake godmen and superstition. The Maharashtra Andhashraddha Nirmoolan Samiti has been at the forefront of efforts to address this issue. In the past six months, over 100 cases have been registered against fake godmen across the state, with many involving allegations of sexual exploitation of women.
The growing influence of fraudulent spiritual practitioners has raised concerns for society. Initiatives such as anti-superstition and anti-fake-godman conferences have been organised to encourage public awareness and action.
