Meanwhile, another major development has emerged from Prayagraj, where intense chaos was reported outside the camp of Swami Avimukteshwaranand. The Swami has filed a formal complaint with the police, accusing certain individuals of vandalism and creating unrest outside the camp. He alleged that a group arrived carrying sticks, rods, and saffron flags, deliberately provoking the situation. Swami Avimukteshwaranand has claimed that his life is under serious threat, stating that the attackers intended to abduct and kill him. He said the possibility of an attack was anticipated earlier, and suddenly around 10 to 12 people launched an assault-like confrontation near the camp. The Swami has also demanded security not only for himself but for devotees and supporters present at the site. Today marks the eighth day of his protest (dharna).
