The Samba administration today demolished an ashram of the self-styled guru Asaram Bapu and retrieved nearly 65 kanals of government land where the complex had been “illegally” built.

The ashram, worth crores, was constructed at Raie village in the Ghagwal area of Samba district on government land. Fearing that followers of the jailed guru would oppose the action, heavy deployment of force was made at the place.

Sources said the authorities had decided to demolish the ashram in March, but due to coronavirus, the move was postponed.
