Immunity From Conscription |

|
During the Second World War, the government of Uttar Pradesh declared a
special ordinance that those in the medical services were to be
conscripted for war duty. Dr. M.U. Khan did not want to go to war, and
he was worried because there seemed to be no way of escaping it. One of
his friends advised him to get the blessing of Baba Nibkarori. Dr. Khan
was not able to find Baba, but Baba came to Lucknow and gave Khan darshan.
When the doctor told Baba about his concern, Baba said, "Offer
laddus [an Indian sweet] to
the Hanuman ji. Everything will be set right." Dr. Khan
at once took laddus
to the Hanuman temple in Aminabad and offered them to Hanuman ji. Soon
after, the government cancelled the conscription and made war services
optional.
