Akhilesh Yadav Alleges Crores in Ram Temple Offerings Missing, Demands Probe
The trust said routine internal audits with State Bank of India representatives are ongoing and no significant irregularities have been found so far.
- On Sunday, Samajwadi Party President Akhilesh Yadav demanded judicial intervention regarding reports that crores in donations to the Ram Temple in Ayodhya have gone missing, calling the situation "highly embarrassing" for the temple trust.
- Former Ayodhya MLA Pawan Pandey claimed missing offerings range between ₹5 crore and ₹7.5 crore, urging Trust General Secretary Champat Rai to publicly swear the allegations are false or an FIR should be registered.
- Rejecting the allegations, Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust General Secretary Champat Rai stated internal audits involving the State Bank of India are underway and "nothing noteworthy has come to light yet" after several days of review.
- Dismissing the clarification as ambiguous, Yadav argued "the clarification itself lacks clarity" and demanded all trustees be brought together with CCTV footage to cross-verify figures.
- Questioning the government's "suspicious" silence, Yadav urged the court to take suo motu cognisance, stressing the dispute directly relates to the profound faith the Sanatani community worldwide places in Lord Ram.
