I will make every effort to ensure that such incidents do not recur in the future,” he added.He added that the controversy had affected the Trust’s public image and said efforts would be made to restore people’s confidence.”The prevailing atmosphere has somewhat tarnished the image of our Trust, giving rise to a sense of mistrust within society.

Champat Rai, Anil Mishra’s resignation accepted by the Ram temple trust NEW DELHI: Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust on Monday accepted the resignation of Champat Rai from the post of general secretary and trustee Anil Mishra amid the donation theft row, said the trust treasurer Swami Govind Dev Giri Ji Maharaj. Krishna Mohan has been entrusted with additional duties as interim general secretary of the trust.”Champat Rai, serving as general secretary, was deeply pained; he felt it inappropriate to continue in his role until justice is fully served—meaning the culprits are apprehended and receive appropriate punishment. Driven by this sentiment, he tendered his resignation—a matter that was not ours to simply accept or reject. K Parasaran raised a significant point: under the Trust’s constitution, a resignation is deemed accepted the moment it is submitted,” he said.Trustees Champat Rai and Anil Mishra stepped down last month, saying they were taking moral responsibility amid allegations of misappropriation of donations made to the temple.The controversy centres on allegations that donations made to the Ram Temple were siphoned off by individuals associated with the temple’s management. A SIT constituted on June 13 to probe the alleged theft, submitted its preliminary report to the Uttar Pradesh government on June 23. The findings formed the basis of an FIR and the arrest of eight people named in the case.Investigators also recovered deleted CCTV footage that allegedly shows some of the accused concealing currency notes while removing them from the temple premises. Although no FIR has been registered against former general secretary, Champat Rai, ex-trustee Anil Mishra and special invitee Gopal Rao, lawyers from the Faizabad Bar Association in Ayodhya have filed a written police complaint seeking criminal proceedings against them.Get the latest India news and live updates.
