Mahakal: Darshan Deal for ₹5000, Omkareshwar for ₹1100 – Bhaskar exposes sting... Ordinary devotees in line, wealthy people get direct entry; employees and priests in collusion.

Waiting for hours in line or paying to have darshan in minutes... a similar network has emerged in the search for Bhaskar at Madhya Pradesh's two major Jyotirlingas - Mahakaleshwar and Omkareshwar. Investigations conducted by devotees during Sawan revealed the roles of security guards, shoe stand employees, ticket counter staff, and priests. In some cases, there were deals to get darshan in 10 minutes for ₹1100, while in others, it was possible to access the sanctum sanctorum directly for ₹5000.
