The spiritual guru, who Chitra Ramkrishna claimed was dwelling in Himalayan ranges, guided her on personal and professional matters for 20 years, according to details in the Sebi order.
An unknown Himalayan yogi's influence on Chitra Ramkrishna during her stint as NSE chief few years ago has triggered heated exchanges on social media between former NSE board member TV Mohandas Pai and Biocon's Executive Chairperson Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw, who wondered whether there were no checks and balances at the exchange.
Both personalities, who are generally vocal about their views on various issues, sparred on Twitter days after markets regulator Sebi passed a 190-page order in the NSE matter wherein a Himalayan yogi's influence on the exchange's former MD and CEO Chitra Ramkrishna was also flagged.
Sharing a link of an article on the Sebi order on her Twitter handle, Ms Mazumdar-Shaw said, "A Yogi Ran India's Top Stock Exchange As Puppet Master: Regulator - Shocking lack of governance in NSE that was held up as a world class SE. Were there no checks n balances?".
The tweet came on February 13 after Sebi's detailed order in the NSE matter on February 11.
