Shimla, September 28, 2013: The Himachal Pradesh government on Friday sealed the Ponta Sahib ashram of Asaram Bapu in Sirmaur district. It was done after the directions of the State government for dealing strictly with encroachments even by religious and spiritual organisations. The incumbent government had already cancelled the lease of the Yog Guru Ramdev’s ashram in Sadhu Pul in Solan which was allotted by the previous government.
