The police lodged a complaint of kidnapping and started the search, Inspector G S Bariya said. Agrahari's wife, Deepmala, and two sons had been staying at the ashram since the last few weeks. Deepmala's brother is a disciple at the ashram.
"Agrahari came here three days ago to meet them and had planned to return yesterday afternoon. When he reached the railway station his wife called and informed that Amit had gone missing," said Bariya.
"When he was not found till late night, Agrahari lodged a complaint early in the morning.
