The controversy surrounding the alleged Ram Temple donation theft has deepened after the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Seva Samiti abruptly cancelled its scheduled press conference, despite issuing formal invitations to the media. The last-minute cancellation, without any clear explanation, has sparked fresh speculation over whether pressure was exerted to prevent the organization from publicly raising questions about the functioning of the Ram Temple Trust. The Seva Samiti, which claims to have been associated with the Ram Janmabhoomi movement for decades, was expected to raise serious concerns regarding the Trust’s functioning and its alleged exclusion from key religious and administrative matters. With the press conference called off, attention has now shifted to the Trust’s crucial meeting scheduled for July 6, where major decisions, including possible restructuring and the future of senior office-bearers, are expected to be discussed. Meanwhile, the SIT investigation into the alleged donation theft continues, with several Trust-linked individuals remaining under scrutiny. The controversy has also taken a political turn, with opposition parties accusing the government of lacking transparency, while the ruling side maintains that the investigation is being conducted fairly and that action will be taken against anyone found guilty. Security arrangements in Ayodhya have also been tightened. Heavy police deployment was witnessed across the city, including at major entry points, while political delegations arriving in Ayodhya reportedly faced security checks amid the heightened sensitivity surrounding the case. As the investigation progresses, public attention remains fixed on the July 6 Trust meeting, which is expected to determine the future course of action in one of the most high-profile controversies linked to the Ram Temple administration.
