New Delhi, September 3: The appointment of Jitendra Mishra as the CEO of the Ram Temple Trust in Ayodhya has drawn sharp criticism from opposition leaders.
Congress leader Udit Raj commented, “The selection process was merely a facade; it was all internal workings. He played a significant role in ‘Operation Sindoor.’ While he has been an excellent officer, one Mishra has been replaced by another. We could have utilized someone with an administrative background. Hinduism belongs to everyone, but when it comes to participation, do OBC, SC, and ST Hindus not count? An OBC or SC individual could have been appointed since this is an administrative position.”
Congress MP Imran Masood stated, “This was the work of saints. Did they not find any honest saints? They took the work away from the saints, which is why the donations were stolen. The work for Ram Lalla has been ongoing for years. Tomorrow, they will label them as dishonest too.”
Rajya Sabha MP Manoj Jha from RJD remarked, “The real news is not the CEO’s appointment but the theft, land distribution, and manipulation in the name of faith. These issues are concerning; everything else is dishonesty.”
Congress leader Rakesh Sinha emphasized, “The Ram Temple is a matter of faith for millions of Sanatanis. The CEO’s appointment will only be meaningful if the Ram Temple Trust operates with complete transparency and fulfills its responsibilities. This ongoing corruption is not pleasing to the Sanatanis. The BJP government is playing with their faith.”
Samajwadi Party MP Ramashankar Rajbhar noted, “Jitendra Mishra hails from Bhupatpura village in our parliamentary constituency. He faces a significant challenge, and I welcome him. In a state where IAS and IPS officers struggle to function due to government pressure, leading to resignations, this is indeed a major challenge for him.”
SP leader Udayveer Singh added, “Socially, everyone is important. The core issue is not about assigning responsibilities; it’s about why no action has been taken against those accused. Until action is taken against them or those involved are identified, any change in the system will be seen merely as an attempt to divert public attention. Along with systemic change, the guilty should also face punishment.”
