SIT Investigation and Legal Action
Following allegations regarding financial irregularities and theft of offerings at the Ram Temple, a Special Investigation Team was constituted to conduct a detailed probe. During the initial phase, authorities restricted trust officials from leaving without prior notice while analyzing internal registers and financial records. Following the completion of the preliminary assessment, the agency is now preparing to lodge formal legal cases based on evidence collected against suspect personnel.
