Ram Temple Trust Delays CEO Appointment, Defers Key Posts, Reconstitutes Religious Committee
The Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust has received over 5,200 applications for the Ram Temple's first Chief Executive Officer (CEO) post. Due to the high volume, the selection committee requested an additional month to complete screening, delaying the appointment beyond the initially expected mid-August timeline. Meanwhile, the Trust deferred appointing a permanent General Secretary and three trustees, opting to continue with an interim secretary. It also reconstituted a religious committee of nine saints to oversee temple rituals and plans to appoint a spokesperson to manage communications.
