  "account": "Indian preacher Sant Rampal has re-emerged into the public eye after his 11-year imprisonment, sparking widespread viral attention in India. Footage captures the enigmatic figure seated inside an unconventional vehicle - a specially crafted glass-sided hydraulic car equipped with air conditioning. This unique transportation choice enables Rampal to remain above his followers as they approach, receiving his contemporary blessings. A donation box is also visible within the vehicle. The video surfaced shortly after Rampal's release from jail, following a protracted legal battle. He was initially arrested on November 19, 2014, during a major police crackdown at his Satlok temple in Barwala, Haryana. The tension escalated, resulting in the tragic deaths of five women and an infant during the ensuing violence. Rampal spent over 11 years behind bars before being granted bail by the Punjab and Haryana High Court in April 2026, leading to his release from Hisar Central Jail on April 10. Subsequently convicted in two murder cases connected to the 2014 incident, he was acquitted in several other cases. Since his release, Rampal has resumed public engagements, with large numbers of devotees flocking to his temple for his modern blessings.",
