Some Lesser Known Facts About Nirmal Baba

Nirmal Baba’s ancestors were Hindus.

Initially, Nirmal Baba’s grandfather did not have any children. His grandfather then made a mannat that if he were blessed with a child, he would convert all his children to Sikhism.

His mannat was fulfilled and within a few years, he was blessed with four children.

In August 1947, his family migrated from Pakistan to India.

After the murder of his father, to save the child, he was sent to Daltonganj in Jharkhand by his mother in 1970.

He did his schooling in Samana, Delhi, and Ludhiana.

After completing his graduation, he enrolled in MA English, but he was diagnosed with typhoid after two months of enrollment. He then quit his MA.

At the age of 22, he decided to start his business for which he took Rs 90,000 from his mother.

In 1974, he moved to Daltonganj where he started his brick kiln business.

During an emergency in India from 1975 to 1977, his brother-in-law (politician) Inder Singh Namdhari was arrested under the Maintenance of Internal Security Act. Inder Singh Namdhari then asked Nirmal Baba to take care of his cloth shop ‘Namdhari Cloth House’ in Gadwa.

After Inder was released from jail, Nirmal Baba moved to Ranchi where he started his limestone and coal business. The business was a huge success. He then bought a bungalow.

After a few months, while he was in his jeep travelling to Ludhiana, his jeep was hit by a major accident. He was then hospitalized at CMC Hospital in Ludhiana.

His legs were fractured in the accident after which he was bedridden for around one and a half years. During this time, his business also suffered major losses and no one was there to look after his business in his absence.

In 1983, after recovering, Baba, along with his wife and children, shifted to Delhi.

In 1984, during the anti-Sikh riots, he was so terrified that he cut his hair and shaved his beard.

After struggling there for a few months, he shifted to Baharagora in Jharkhand to do business.

His firm Narula Minerals then got a contract from the Jharkhand State Mining Development Corporation.

During this time, in the jungles of Jharkhand, he felt a spiritual connectivity. His family also started feeling a few changes in him. He had told a few things to his family members which turned out to be true and beneficial for them.

Soon, people from their neighbourhood started visiting him for his blessings. Gradually, his followers started increasing. Initially, he used to have one-on-one conversations with his followers.
