चंपत राय ‘सबके निशाने पर’! मिलेगी क्लीन चिट या भुगतेंगे राम मंदिर परिसर में हुई चढ़ावा चोरी का खामियाजा? – ram mandir donation row champat rai sit report future ayodhya ntc
After the case of theft of offerings in the Ram temple located in Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh, Champat Rai, general secretary of Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust and surveyor of the new Ram temple, is in everyone’s target. And it is natural to be the target, because if Champat Rai has got the credit for getting the Ram temple built, then the responsibility for the irregularities in theft of offerings will also be his.
Although Champat Rai, a full-time campaigner associated with RSS and Vishwa Hindu Parishad, has been considered very strict and honest, but his image of a stubborn and not listening person has made him Ram Mandir Established him as an uncompromising person associated with. By the time the Ram temple was built, Champat Rai was already among the biggest faces dedicated to the construction of the temple.
Those who dedicated their entire lives to the construction of the temple, were dedicated to the work and Ayodhya He was also considered a great expert. Since Ayodhya has been Champat Rai’s workplace for many decades, he had developed a good rapport with all the sages, saints, cantonments, akharas and saint society of Ayodhya. But when it came to the construction of the temple, Champat Rai did not listen to the advice of most of the sages and saints of Ayodhya. Be it the formation of the trust or the construction of the temple, many leaders and saints associated with the Ram Mandir movement were kept away from the Ram Janmabhoomi Trust and the temple construction process.
Since the formation of the Ram Mandir Trust, most of the saints and old people associated with the temple movement were angry with the fact that the people who participated enthusiastically in the temple movement, who faced lathicharge and bullets, the saints, monasteries and cantonments who played their role in the Ram Mandir movement, were completely sidelined.
When Ram Janmabhoomi Trust was formed, Mahant Nritya Gopal Das of Chhoti Chhawni was made its president, but his role was limited to an ex-officio president only. all power and authority Champat Rai Were contained in. Mahants of many monasteries of Ayodhya were angry with Champat Rai since the formation of Ram Janmabhoomi Trust, but since the government had given a lot of powers to Champat Rai, everyone remained silent.
There were many occasions when Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath’s displeasure was also visible. Especially at the time of hoisting the flag, the government’s displeasure came to the fore regarding Champat Rai’s way of working.
There are important posts like President and Treasurer in the Trust. Chief Minister’s advisor Avnish Awasthi also remained in the trust. DM of Ayodhya is also its trustee. But it is said that Champat Rai alone was superior to everyone else. Therefore, most of the members of the trust had distanced themselves from the functioning and decisions of the temple.
Now that the case of theft in offerings has gained momentum and questions have started being raised on Champat Rai, he is being put in the dock, then the big faces, saints and mahants associated with the old movement who have been angry for years have also come out openly against him. Be it Vinay Katiyar, Santosh Dubey or Mahant Kamal Nayan Das of Chhoti Chhawni, everyone opened a front against Champat Rai.
Vinay Katiyar had clearly said that Champat Rai had committed a crime and he would soon reveal the theft in the offerings. However, later he took a U-turn and became silent.
Everyone knows that Champat Rai can be arrogant, stubborn and not listening to anyone, but he cannot be corrupt. Because people associated with the Ram Mandir movement for decades have seen his simple life, which continues even today. But the issue of theft in offerings has become so linked to people’s faith that people are not ready to give a clean chit to Champat Rai.
The reason is clear that till now the trust and the entire Ram temple complex has been running under his supervision. If there is theft in the offerings even without their knowledge, then the responsibility definitely falls on them.
So many serious questions have been raised on the Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust that even if Champat Rai gets a clean chit, it is now considered almost impossible for him to continue in the Trust.
Nripendra Mishra, chairman of the Ram Mandir Construction Committee and considered very close to the Prime Minister, also acknowledged the major irregularities in the functioning of the temple, but termed Champat Rai’s life as spotless. Even though Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath kept Champat Rai away from his program, he also said that no one’s character should be assassinated. The reference was taken towards Champat Rai only.
Now it seems that Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust can be reorganized afresh. A new professional system can be implemented. And after raising so many questions, people like Champat Rai, Anil Mishra can distance themselves from the trust.
But an eye will definitely be on whether the SIT holds these big faces, including names like Champat Rai, Anil Mishra and Gopal Rao, guilty in this entire offering theft case or not.
