Controvercy
One of the controversies is that the priests who were incharge of the main tomb which was of Hajarat Imam Shah and his son Mohommad Shah claimed that he was hindu. It was said that when the people who visited the dargah after bowing down to the tomb  when came out a man who was dressed in white clothes would put a tilak on their forehead of saffron colour which is put by hindus when they worship. Apart from this there was another thing that Om which is a symbol for hindus was written on the wall at many different places of the dargah. A holy place was build for Pir imam shah after his death. After making a shrine they also marked the place where pir imam shah bawa used to sleep and it also had pictures of hindu gods and built a holy place and a graveyard and a mosques to offer him respect. The court has given the orders that government would take care of that place. There was a talk that the handwritten Quran by Pir imam shah which used to lie besides the tomb once disappeared. There was no clue that where the Quran went. After some problems they renamed the dargah to 'Prerna Pith' or ' Samadhi mandir' It was also said that a wire was used as a fence to seperate the Pir's tomb from masjid by the satpanthi administration
