Top Hindu body to devise mechanism to award title of 'Sant' 
The Akhil Bharatiya Akhara Parishad has decided to put in place a mechanism to award the title of 'sant' to stop its misuse by people like rape-convict Ram Rahim Singh. The Parishad said it will observe individuals' lifestyle before conferring the title on them. It has also decided that 'sants' cannot hold cash or have any assets in their name.
