Supreme Court Directs SIT to Expedite Ram Temple Donation Probe, Allows Public Suggestions
The Supreme Court has directed a Special Investigation Team (SIT) to expedite its probe into alleged embezzlement of donations at the Ram temple in Ayodhya and submit a sealed status report. The court allowed petitioners and public-spirited individuals to submit suggestions via the Solicitor General's office for improving the investigation. The Uttar Pradesh government handed the SIT's final report to the Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust, which cleared key trust members. The court may issue reforms for donation management after reviewing the SIT report.
