As Fourth Sant Satguru
Sarkar Sahab succeeded Maharaj Sahab in 1907. Some influential members of the Central Administrative Council established by Maharaj Sahab were not prepared to accept Sarkar Sahab as the Successor of Maharaj Sahab. When all efforts of Sarkar Sahab to change their uncooperative attitude proved to be of no avail, the Ghazipur Satsang held a meeting in which a separate and independent body, The Radhasoami Satsang Sabha was formed. Out of 116 branch Satsangs of Maharaj Sahab's time representatives of 111 had attended that meeting. He was succeeded by Anand Swarup alias Sahab Ji Maharaj in 1913.Literature

He contributed a number of Articles to Prem Samachar, a monthly magazine published in 1913.One of these articles, entitled "Param Guru" is a fine exposition of the status of the Sant Satguru in the Radhasoami Faith.
