What is written in the suicide note?
Yoga guru Swami Anand Giri, chief priest of Lete Hanuman temple Aadya Tiwari and his son Sandeep Tiwari have been cited as the reason in an alleged ‘suicide note’ found near the body of Mahant Narendra Giri. Most of the things written in the note are related to the succession of the monastery, temple and throne. As his successor, the Mahant mentions a disciple named Balveer. It is written in the letter that ‘I cannot live without respect. I am in depression. What do I do, how do I live? Because of Anand Giri, I got a lot of notoriety. Clean up whom? It is better to leave the world. Everyone will take great care of me except a few disciples. Take care of my disciples.’
How did you write such a long suicide note?
The police are talking about getting a suicide note of several pages from near the dead body. However, the disciples of Sevadar and Narendra Giri say that the Maharaj (Mahant) did not even write two lines by himself. Whenever he had to write something, he would call a disciple. In such a situation, no one is able to understand when and how he wrote the seven-eight-page suicide note. Even while writing to the Mahant, very few people wrote. Some servitors said that the suicide note should be thoroughly investigated. The police is asking forensic experts to conduct the investigation.
Who is Anand Giri? Why under suspicion?

- Anand Giri alleged that Guru also had family ties. The disciple said that the Mahant has bought property worth crores in the name of his brothers, gunners and favorite disciples.
- Guru and disciple met in Lucknow on 26 May 2021. Anand Giri tendered an unconditional apology and the Mahant allowed him to come to the Math. Anand Giri has said after the latest developments that he had no dispute with Mahant Narendra Giri.

Why was the nylon rope ordered?
In the initial investigation of the police, the testimony of two prominent sevadars will be important. The role of Bablu and Sumit is still suspicious to the police. More information about him is being gathered from other disciples. During interrogation, it was found that Mahant had ordered the rope on Sunday itself. According to local media, Mahant had told Bablu that a nylon rope was needed to dry the cloth.
Bablu brought a rope from the market but it is not clear from which shop and for how much. It is also learned that when Mahant did not come out of his room till Monday evening, it was Bablu and Sumit first who went inside. Both of them opened the door and brought the dead body of the Mahant from the noose.
