Now read what the court said in its order?
- Rejecting the draft, the court said – India is a secular country. The petitioner cannot be allowed to force the people of the country to believe that Sri Sri Anukul Chandra is divine.
- Justice Shah said – If you want to consider him as God, then accept it, why are you imposing it on others. We have not come here to listen to your lecture, but to narrate it. We are a secular country.
- You believe that there is only one Guruji… Does this ever happen brother? Everyone has full rights in this country. Whatever religion you want to follow, follow it.

After the arguments of the disciple, the court did not find this petition in public interest. Therefore, a fine of one lakh rupees was also imposed on him.

Now people will think at least 4 times before making such a petition.
This fine has been ordered to be deposited in the Supreme Court Registry within 4 weeks.
