Ram Mandir Trust to Appoint First CEO from Three Shortlisted CandidatesPreviousNext

The Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust is set to appoint its first permanent Chief Executive Officer (CEO) following a rigorous selection process that attracted 5,585 applications. A three-member search committee shortlisted three candidates, including retired bureaucrats and officers, for the role. The final decision is expected at the Trust's meeting on September 2 in Ayodhya. The CEO appointment aims to strengthen administrative oversight after allegations of donation irregularities and related resignations within the Trust.
