Gurugram, June 6

Dera Sacha Sauda chief Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh was on Thursday discharged from Medanta and then taken back to Sunaria jail.

Rahim Singh tested negative in an RT-PCR test for Covid-19, highly-placed sources in the Chief Minister’s Office—a development that comes a day after he tested positive in a rapid antigen test.

Singh's close aide Honeypreet reportedly visited him in Medanta Hospital in Gurugram on Monday and registered herself as his attendant, the sources said.

Meanwhile, police were deployed in large numbers outside the hospital after several of Ram Rahim’s followers tried to meet him.
