A bench comprising CJI Surya Kant and Justices Joymalya Bagchi and V Mohana will hear three petitions on Monday NEW DELHI: The Supreme Court will hear a batch of petitions on July 13 seeking an independent and time-bound probe into the alleged embezzlement of donations at the Ram temple in Ayodhya.According to the Supreme Court’s website, a bench comprising Chief Justice of India Surya Kant and Justices Joymalya Bagchi and V Mohana will hear three petitions after the apex court reopens on Monday.The pleas seek a court-monitored Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) probe into the alleged financial irregularities involving the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust, which manages the affairs of the Ram temple.Petitioners seek CBI probe, forensic auditOne of the petitions, filed by Narendra Kumar Goswami, seeks a CBI investigation into the alleged embezzlement along with a Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) audit of the Trust’s finances.Another petition filed by practising advocates Ajay Kumar Rai and Dinesh Kumar Yadav has sought the constitution of a CBI-led multi-disciplinary Special Investigation Team (SIT) to investigate the alleged financial irregularities and other purported illegalities concerning the Trust’s administration.The petition has also sought directions to the Centre, the Uttar Pradesh government and the Trust to establish regulatory, supervisory and audit mechanisms to safeguard public interest and maintain the confidence of millions of devotees and donors.”Whether or not the reports regarding missing funds and other alleged irregularities concerning the Shri Ram Janmbhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust are ultimately found to be true, such reports have caused deep concern among the generations that struggled for the restoration of the glory of Ayodhya,” the plea stated.The petition further argued that the Uttar Pradesh government’s SIT began its inquiry without registration of an FIR or any regular criminal case, and said the allegations should be independently verified through a professional agency with expertise in complex financial investigations.A third petition, filed by Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) MP Sudhakar Singh, has sought a Supreme Court-monitored CBI probe as well as a forensic audit of the Trust’s entire finances.Investigation underway, eight accused arrestedThe hearing comes as the investigation into the alleged embezzlement continues in Uttar Pradesh.On July 7, an Ayodhya court granted one-day police custody of three of the eight accused arrested in the case — Anukalp Mishra, Lavkush Mishra and Karunesh Pandey. Earlier, on June 29, a local court had sent all eight accused to 14 days of judicial custody.The Uttar Pradesh government had constituted a three-member SIT on June 13 following a request from the temple trust after allegations of misappropriation of donations surfaced.The SIT comprises Lucknow divisional commissioner Vijay Vishwas Pant, inspector general of police Kiran S and Special Secretary (Finance) Neel Ratan.The SIT’s preliminary probe has pointed to serious security lapses in the temple’s counting room and suggested that the alleged theft was “systematic” and repeated rather than isolated.The investigation reportedly found around 70 suspicious incidents between April 27 and June 5 after reviewing CCTV footage, in which counting staff were allegedly seen concealing bundles of cash in their clothes, pockets, shoes and other personal belongings.The preliminary findings also highlighted weaknesses in security arrangements, including the absence of frisking of staff at entry and exit points of the counting hall and inadequate monitoring of personal belongings.Temple trust member backs investigationAmid the ongoing controversy, Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Temple Trust member Mahant Dinendra Das Maharaj expressed confidence in the investigation and dismissed reports suggesting that the VIP darshan pass IDs of senior Trust functionaries had been blocked.”There is no issue as of now. This is still in place. I have no details otherwise; the existing system still continues,” he told news agency ANI while confirming that passes continue to be issued using trust general secretary Champat Rai’s ID.On the investigation, he said, “We have faith in Ram Lalla, and the chief minister and the administration are fully aware and involved. We have full faith in the police; they are performing their duty. They will catch the thieves in every way and will also punish them.”The alleged embezzlement has triggered a political controversy in Uttar Pradesh, with opposition parties demanding accountability while chief minister Yogi Adityanath has assured strict action against anyone found guilty of misappropriating donations meant for the temple.Get the latest India news and live updates.

When European rabbits arrived in Australia in the 19th century, they were brought in as familiar game animals for hunting rather than as a threat to the environment. Within decades, however, their population exploded across the continent. With few natural predators and the ability to adapt to a wide range of landscapes, rabbits spread from…

The committee held discussions on the Constitution (129th Amendment) Bill, 2024. NEW DELHI: The Joint Committee of Parliament examining the proposed legislation on simultaneous elections is working towards creating a framework that could enable the ‘One Nation, One Election’ model to be implemented by the 2029 Lok Sabha elections, committee chairperson PP Chaudhary told news agency PTI.Speaking to reporters on the sidelines of the panel’s two-day meeting in Goa, Chaudhary said consultations held across the country had received overwhelming support from civil society stakeholders for the proposal. He also cited estimates suggesting that frequent elections cost the Indian economy nearly Rs 7 lakh crore.The committee held discussions on the Constitution (129th Amendment) Bill, 2024, beginning its Goa visit with an interaction involving chief minister Pramod Sawant and members of the state cabinet. The deliberations focused on the practical challenges of conducting simultaneous elections and possible ways to address them.”We had an informal interaction with the chief minister and cabinet ministers, who represent the people of Goa. We discussed how ‘One Nation, One Election’ can be implemented, what challenges exist and how they can be mitigated while maintaining a fine balance acceptable to all,” Chaudhary said.He said the panel has already travelled to several states, including Gujarat, Karnataka, Maharashtra, Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Punjab, Haryana and Delhi, where it consulted constitutional experts, educationists, civil society organisations and other stakeholders.According to Chaudhary, the response has been overwhelmingly positive.”We have found that almost 99 per cent of stakeholders, particularly from civil society and various organisations, favour simultaneous elections. The effort now is to evolve a mechanism that is acceptable to all political parties,” he said.Asked about the likely timeline, the BJP MP from Rajasthan’s Pali constituency said the committee was exploring different models that could allow the reform to take effect before the next general election.He added that some states could align their election schedules even earlier if their governments and political parties voluntarily agree to synchronise their electoral cycles.Chaudhary also highlighted the economic case for the proposal, referring to findings presented before the high-level committee headed by former President Ram Nath Kovind.He said an economic assessment submitted to the Kovind panel estimated that conducting elections separately across the country results in losses of nearly Rs 7 lakh crore, while synchronised polls could produce comparable economic gains.”Elections are now not confined to one state. If elections are held anywhere in the country, they have an impact on other states because the economy is interconnected,” Chaudhary said.Using Goa as an example, he said elections in other states influence tourist arrivals in Goa, while elections in Goa itself affect the state’s tourism sector.”The economy today is globalised. An adverse impact in one state affects other states as well. Frequent elections have economic consequences beyond state boundaries,” he said.Chaudhary also argued that repeated elections interrupt governance and place additional burdens on the education system, as government school teachers are routinely assigned election-related duties such as preparing electoral rolls, training and polling work.”As a result, teaching in government schools suffers. The worst affected are children from economically weaker sections who depend on government schools. This is a serious concern if the situation continues over the coming decades,” he said.Describing simultaneous elections as a key electoral reform envisioned by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Chaudhary said the initiative would contribute to India’s ambition of becoming a developed nation by 2047.”The details will emerge with time. The objective is to build a broad consensus and evolve a practical mechanism acceptable to all,” Choudhari said.Get the latest India news and live updates.
