The selection process for the first full-time CEO of the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust in Ayodhya has entered its final stage. On Tuesday, interviews began for 18 candidates shortlisted from over 5,200 applications received for the position. A three-member panel, comprising Justice Pramod Kohli, Lieutenant General Vishnukant Chaturvedi, and Suresh Haware, is conducting closed-door interviews at the Ram temple complex.
The panel will recommend three names to the Trust for final consideration, with an appointment expected at the Trust meeting scheduled for September 2. The CEO will oversee temple administration and operations, managing finances, administration, and religious affairs. Candidates must be Indian citizens, practicing Hindus, and between 50 and 70 years of age, with at least 20 years of experience in administration, finance, or management.
Fluency in both Hindi and English is mandatory. The CEO will be appointed for a three-year term and expected to reside in Ayodhya. This appointment is seen as a significant step in strengthening the governance structure of the trust, particularly following a recent controversy over alleged embezzlement of temple donations.
