Pressure from the devotees of Sri Sathya Sai Baba is mounting on the state government to come to their aid in the wake of Baba's critical health Condition. While the government is extending full support and help in case of Baba's health, it is not in a position to do anything right now regarding the affairs of Sri Sathya Sai Trusts. It is said that the government does not have any records pertaining to the Sathya Sai Central Trust.
The nucleus trust, Sathya Sai Central Trust was registered with the endowments commissioner in Anantapur on September 2, 1972. However, the state government does not even have a copy of the trust deed. Principal Secretary, Endowments department, K V Ramanachary says "The trust got exemption from submitting reports to the state government and the endowments department. So we have no documents relating to the Sathya Sai Trust." According to him, it is the central government that has been monitoring the activities of the trust.
The Sathya Sai Central Trust, which has Saibaba as its chairman, had requested the state government to grant exemption from statutory filing of reports to the endowments department, which was duly conceded by the then Congress government. As per the Indian Trust Act, trusts should submit a report to the state government concerned once at least every three years. The Sathya Sai Central Trust, has been filing only the foreign contribution report under the Foreign Contribution Regulation Act to the union home ministry every year.
Apart from the Sathya Sai Central Trust, there are several trusts floated by Saibaba to carry out various philanthropic activities. They include Shri Sathya Sai Health Trust, Karnataka, Shri Sathya Sai Trust, Karnataka, Sri Sathya Sai Books & Publication Trust, Mumbai, Sri Sathya Sai Institute of Higher Learning, Anantapur, Sri Sathya Sai Medical Trust, Anantapur, and Sri Sathya Sai Foundation for Universal Peace, Anantapur.
