As mediapersons were allowed entry to the Ashram, some followers who were still inside narrated that Rampal's staunch supporters and private commandos had been putting pressure on them not to leave as police would arrest them.
Inside the sprawling complex, massive arrangements could be seen in place for accommodating thousands of followers.
Stocks of food items too could be seen lying inside while several water bottles and other items lay scattered.
In view of winter, arrangements for large number of followers to sleep comfortably too had been made.
A large swimming pool was found inside and amenities to ensure comfortable stay of Rampal and his key functionaries inside the Ashram could be seen.
CCTV cameras and metal detectors to check the followers of Rampal, who had some ex-servicemen and retired policeman among his staunch supporters, were also found installed at various points in the Ashram.
Before launching full-scale operation to search the Ashram for objectionable items, including arms and ammunition, police said they wanted to ensure that all innocent followers have come out so as to isolate any of the commandos or other accused who may be still hiding inside.
During the siege, four women died under mysterious circumstances while a young woman who was taken to hospital at Hisar in a serious condition also breathed her last.
An infant too was declared dead at the hospital after being taken there yesterday.
Haryana Police and para-military forces surrounded the premises and kept a tight vigil so that any accused person, who may be hiding inside, did not escape.
