The minor has courted controversy after doubts about his spiritual persona and his family’s role.
The family of Abhinav Arora, a 10-year-old child who claims to be a spiritual orator and is also known as Bal Sant Baba, has reportedly moved a court in Uttar Pradesh’s Mathura seeking an FIR against at least seven YouTubers for allegedly trolling the minor.
