'Sadhu-saint not involved': CM Yogi on Ram Mandir donation theft case
Addressing reporters, CM Yogi said said the initial SIT report had not found any involvement of religious figures in the alleged theft of offerings made at the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Temple. "No involvement of any sadhu-saint was found in the SIT's initial report in the case related to the alleged embezzlement of offerings (chadhava) at the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Temple," he said.
Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath stated on Tuesday that no sadhu or saint has been implicated in the alleged Ram Temple donation embezzlement case. This assessment is based on the preliminary report submitted by the Special Investigation Team (SIT). Adityanath accused the Samajwadi Party and the Congress of using the issue to tarnish Uttar Pradesh's reputation and mislead the public.
He described their actions as unconstitutional and offensive to the sentiments of Bharat Ratna Bhimrao Ambedkar. The CM also criticized the opposition for disrupting the House proceedings and wasting valuable time. The controversy originated after the opposition announced they would discuss the alleged embezzlement of donations during the assembly session.
