The Uttar Pradesh government has reconstituted a Special Investigation Team to investigate allegations of theft of donations meant for the Ram Temple, following a directive from the Supreme Court.
The state government announced the reconstitution of a Special Investigation Team (SIT) to probe allegations that donations collected for the Ram Temple were misappropriated. The move comes after the Supreme Court directed the state to set up a probe into the matter. The new SIT will replace the previous team and is tasked with gathering evidence, interviewing witnesses, and presenting findings to the court. Officials said the investigation will be conducted in accordance with the law and that the team will work closely with the police and other agencies. The decision is part of a broader effort to ensure transparency in the management of temple funds.
