The Ram Temple donation theft case has entered a new phase as the focus shifts from arrests to institutional accountability. While three of the eight accused remain in police custody, questions are being raised over donation counting, security lapses, and the Trust's oversight. Former General Secretary Champat Rai has maintained silence, saying he will speak only after the SIT report. Meanwhile, RSS ideologue S. Gurumurthy has defended the Trust's response, calling the alleged theft an isolated act rather than a large-scale scam.
