The VHP has dismissed allegations of corruption against the Ram temple trust in the purchase of land in Ayodhya, and has threatened to sue anyone who tries to deceive the public ahead of the Uttar Pradesh assembly elections. “The Ram Temple is built in a genuine and transparent manner. Attempts to discredit this divine movement are regrettable. This misinformation campaign appears to be motivated by self-interest. Politicians are attempting to politicize the issue, but it is one of faith “Alok Kumar, the international working president of the Vishwa Hindu Parishad.
Tej Narayan Pandey of the Samajwadi Party (SP) and Sanjay Singh of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) accused the Ram temple trust of corruption in a land deal on Sunday, calling for an investigation by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI). “Ravi Mohan Tiwari and Sultan Ansari had previously purchased the plot of land for Rs. 2 crore. On March 18, ten minutes later, the trust purchased the land for Rs 18.5 crore “At a press conference, Pandey stated.
Pandey also claimed that an RTGS money transfer of Rs. 17 crore was made to the bank accounts of Ravi Mohan Tiwari and Sultan Ansari, and demanded an investigation into the RTGS money transfer.
Alok Kumar of the Vishwa Hindu Parishad described the land deal as a “transparent agreement.” “We recommended that the trust file a defamation suit against those who falsely accuse Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust. The assembly elections in Uttar Pradesh are approaching, which is why they are lying to the people “he stated
Kumar also stated that land purchases and sales are made after mutual consultation and consent. “Kusum Pathak was willing to sell it, but she couldn’t because she had already made a deal. Meanwhile, Sultan Ansari and Ravi Mohan Tripathi were both interested in selling it, but they couldn’t do so without Kusum’s permission, and they didn’t have any agreement to sell it “he stated
“But this deal was not possible without the consent of these four including Harish Pathak,” he added.
Following the Ram Mandir verdict and the state government’s announcement of the temple’s construction, the VHP leader claimed that the price of land has increased. “The circle rate is no longer relevant, according to the trust. The land in question is currently valued at 18.5 crore rupees “Added he.
He stated that there were no irregularities in the transaction and that all money transactions were done in cash, implying that there was no possibility of money laundering.
The Ram temple trust, which was established by the government following the Supreme Court’s landmark November 2019 decision, has also denied the allegations of corruption and dismissed calls for an investigation. It was claimed that the land for the Ram temple in Ayodhya had been cleansed.
