Ram Temple Trust disables VIP pass IDs linked to Champat Rai, Gopal Rao, Anil Mishra amid donation theft row

In a significant development amid the Ram Temple donation theft controversy, the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust has disabled the system-generated IDs linked to former Trust General Secretary Champat Rai, Gopal Rao and Anil Mishra that were earlier used to recommend and issue VIP darshan passes. With the IDs now deactivated, no new passes can be generated through these accounts, effectively ending their role in the temple's recommendation-based pass issuance system.
