In August, the Delhi Police had filed an FIR after receiving a complaint from the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO).

An assistant director posted at the PMO had complained about Pulkit Mishra. In the complaint, Mishra has been accused of posing as the PM’s spiritual guru.

Mishra allegedly took the VIP facility in the name of prime minister besides several other advantages.

The incident was unearthed when PMO discovered that a fraudulent letter was issued to the District Magistrate of Uttar Pradesh’s Sitapur in the name of a person claiming to be the secretary, Ministry of Arts and Culture, seeking security and accommodation for Pulkit.
