The official statement from Ayodhya Prasand Singh read, “I, Ayodhya Prasad Singh, clarify that Mr. Vashishtha Narayan Singh is of unsound mind and as per law, a legal manager is required to deal with his person and property and there is no legally appointed manager yet. My brother Mr. Harishchandra Narayan has applied to the court to appoint him as guardian/manager of Mr. Vashishtha Narayan Singh, final order on the same is pending. We would further like to clarify that till there is no legally appointed guardian/manager, no one in our family has the authority to grant any rights with respect to Mr. Vashishtha Narayan Singh’s life/person or property. I further clarify that no member from Mr. VVashishtha Narayan Singh’s family has granted any rights with respect to Mr. Vashishtha Narayan Singh’s biopic to Reel Life Entertainment Pvt. Ltd., or Priti Sinha, and the matter is sub-judiced.”

We will follow the court orders and issue further statement in this regard“, concluded the statement.

Dr. Vashishtha Narayan Singh has been suffering from schizophrenia since a decade and has not been in a sound state of mind.
