by A Wild Scene in Jaipur
On March 3, 2025, Abhay Singh, known as IIT Baba, got nabbed in Jaipur. Police found him with ganja at a hotel, stirring up a storm. This all went down just hours ago, fresh as of 06:55 PM IST.
Suicide Threat Sparks Action
It started with a scare. IIT Baba posted a suicide threat on social media, alarming his followers. The Jaipur Police rushed to the Classic Hotel near Riddhi Siddhi Park to check it out.
Ganja in His Pocket
When cops got there, things got weirder. Abhay Singh pulled out a 1.5-gram packet of ganja during questioning. He admitted to using it, saying he might’ve rambled under its influence.
Police Step In Fast
The Shipra Path Police didn’t waste time. They seized the ganja and booked him under the NDPS Act—that’s the law against drugs. But here’s the twist: he walked free on bail soon after.
Small Amount, Big Noise
Why the quick release? The ganja was tiny—1.5 grams—within legal limits for bail. Still, the story blew up online, with X buzzing about IIT Baba’s wild day.
IIT Baba’s Defense
Abhay Singh didn’t stay quiet. He told reporters it was “prasad”—a holy offering—and claimed every seer at Maha Kumbh uses it. “Why just me?” he argued, brushing off the fuss.
From IIT to Spotlight
Who’s this guy? IIT Baba is an IIT Bombay grad, once an aerospace engineer. He ditched that life for spirituality, hitting fame at Maha Kumbh 2025 with his quirky story.
A Rough Week Before
This isn’t his first drama. On February 28, he said saffron-clad folks beat him on a Noida TV show. He protested outside a police station but later dropped it.
What He Said After
Post-bail, IIT Baba played it cool. “Fake news about suicide and detention,” he said on X. “Only truth? I got bail fast—small case, no big deal.”
Police Keep Watch
The cops aren’t done. They might call him back if leads grow. Jaipur Police say his followers tipped them off—social media’s still hot with chatter.
Why It’s a Big Deal
This mix of ganja, threats, and a famous face grabs eyes. IIT Baba’s shift from scholar to seer keeps folks talking. Gujarat ties? He’s from Haryana, but his antics echo here.
Fans and Critics Weigh In
X is split—some cheer his boldness, others slam the ganja stunt. “He’s just celebrating his birthday,” one fan posted. Critics call it a reckless mess.
What’s Next for Baba
Will he bounce back or fade out? March 3 leaves IIT Baba in the hot seat. Gujarat’s watching—his next move could shake things up more.
