Ram Temple Trust Meets Amid Theft Row: Key Posts on Table
After the donation theft scandal and Champat Rai's exit, the Ram temple trust gathered in Ayodhya for two crucial meetings — a new general secretary, three trustee seats, and a first-ever CEO on the agenda.
The Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust held two crucial meetings in Ayodhya on Wednesday, its first big gathering since the donation theft controversy shook the temple's administration.
What Was on the Agenda
Three big items: appointing a new general secretary, filling three vacant trustee posts, and deliberating on the appointment of the temple's first chief executive officer.
The Backdrop
Former general secretary Champat Rai resigned after the offering theft controversy surfaced, leaving the trust's most important administrative post empty at a sensitive time. The theft of donations had also become a flashpoint in Parliament, where the opposition raised it alongside the NEET row.
How the Meetings Unfolded
A special meeting was held at 3 pm inside the Ram temple complex, followed by the regular meeting at 4 pm at Maniram Chhawani, the residence of trust president Mahant Nritya Gopal Das.

Bringing in a professional CEO would be a structural shift for the trust, separating day-to-day administration from the religious leadership — a change many see as overdue given the scale of donations the temple now handles. Details were reported by India TV.
