The Ram Temple embezzlement case revolves around the alleged misappropriation of cash and valuables contributed by devotees at the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya.
Amid uproar and public scrutiny since June 7, 2026, after the Samajwadi Party (SP) president Akhilesh Yadav claimed reports have emerged that crores of rupees from donations offered at the Ram Temple are missing, the matter escalated with the Uttar Pradesh government on June 13, constituting a three-member Special Investigation Team (SIT) to probe the alleged misappropriation of donation funds.
