Congress Urges PM Modi to Address Parliament on Ram Temple Trust Donation AllegationsPreviousNext

The Congress party has urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to address Parliament regarding allegations of donation misappropriation linked to the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust, which he announced in 2020. Congress General Secretary Jairam Ramesh accused the Trust, established and overseen by the Prime Minister, of betraying public faith.
