There have been many questions raised in the past about the BKWSU (UK) Mauritus-born Sindi trustee - and football fan - Sanjay Tulsidas. I wonder if Sanjay Tulsidas is a Leicester City fan? Even if not, I am sure he knows of their great success.
One of those included the nature of his marriage to a BK Sister that many assumed could only have been a paper marriage for the sake of a visa. It was the subject of much gossip within the London BK family at time.
It turns out the Brahma Kumari Sister he married was BK Dipti Khatry who is on various committees for the BKs, including for the London Diwali celebration festival, and is promoted as "Dipti Khatri (Secretary, Brahma Kumari World Spiritual University UK)", the same charity for which Tulsidas is a trustee. Dipti's biography on that (non-BK) site states that has "been studying Raja Yoga with the Brahma Kumaris for over 25 years", which would date her surrendering to the early 1990s. Tulsidas's claim of 28 years would date back to 1990.
Therefore they were "married" after they became Brahma Kumari followers. I understand the woman's mother or family was involved with the BKs.
But does it appear ethical for a trustee of a BK charity to be able to exploit his position in such a way?
Ditto, BKs doing business amongst the BK community was also contrary to the BKs' principles (Maryadas) or Shrimat and yet it is understood that the "couple" have shared financial interests, perhaps in property?

- To outsiders, this might appear perfectly normal and legal.
To those of us who have been BKs, and for most BKs today still, this is unthinkable, and not a luxury widely afforded to the following. Indeed, the BK god spirit refers to marriage in highly negative terms, eg temples carrying out marriage ceremonies as "brothels", marriage as the "gateway to hell" and "bondage" and so on.
