Kejriwal Visits Ayodhya as Ram Temple Donation Probe Intensifies

The visit follows explosive claims of embezzlement involving contributions earmarked for the Ram Temple. While Kejriwal and AAP MP Sanjay Singh used the platform to challenge the local administration, the state government moved to seize control of the narrative. Uttar Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Brajesh Pathak confirmed that an FIR has been registered, pledging that authorities will pursue any individuals linked to the financial mismanagement.

BJP leadership has countered these accusations by framing the investigation as a proactive effort rather than a response to political pressure. MP Dinesh Sharma asserted that the temple trust initiated the legal process before opposition figures raised the issue, highlighting the government’s push for transparency. A Special Investigation Team has now been tasked with the inquiry, signaling a protracted battle over accountability as the state attempts to insulate the project’s reputation from the ongoing scandal.
