The purported suicide note found near Mahant Narendra Giri’s body not only indicates the mental stress he was undergoing in his final days but also his concern towards his Baghambari Gaddi Math ashram and his disciples. In his will mentioned in the suicide note, Mahant Narendra Giri expressed his wish to make Balbeer Puri the Mahant of Bade Hanuman Temple and Baghambari Gaddi Math.

In an interview, advocate Rishi Shankar Dwivedi said the Mahant had got his will prepared for the first time on January 7, 2010. However, he asked me to change the will (August 29, 2011) and name Anand Giri as his successor,” said Dwivedi, a resident of Allahapur locality of Prayagraj. He changed his will again in 2020 replacing Anand Giri with Balbeer Giri again, saying he would look after the Math and the temple in a better manner,” he said.

Mahant Narendra Giri was found dead on Monday at Baghambari Math in Allahabad. He was the president of Akhil Bharatiya Akhada Parishad.

In the suicide note, Narendra Giri also requested the police and administrative officials to take action against Anand Giri, Aadya Tiwari and Sandeep Tiwari so that his soul may get peace. However, Anand Giri and Aadya Tiwari were sent to 14 days of judicial custody
