New Delhi: The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on Sunday began a preliminary enquiry against yoga guru Baba Ramdev’s aide Acharya Balkrishna, who allegedly holds a fake passport. Ramdev denied any wrongdoing by his aide.

The CBI received a complaint from the central government on Saturday night that Balkrishna allegedly holds a fake passport. “Today (Sunday), a preliminary enquiry has been registered,” said an official.

Ramdev said: “We followed the legal path to obtain his (Balkrishna’s) passport. Why are they blaming us and not the government agencies which issued the passport?”

The CBI said they also received a complaint that Balkrishna holds more than one passport.

“There are also allegations that he is from Nepal and has forged an Indian passport,” said the official.

Balkrishna, meanwhile, denied all the allegations and asserted that he holds an Indian passport. (IANS)
