'We have faith, right decision will be taken': Ayodhya saints on Ram Temple Trust meet
Ayodhya, July 6
Saints in Ayodhya on Monday expressed their views ahead of the crucial meeting of the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust, with some calling for greater engagement with the city's saints, while others voiced confidence that the Trust would take fair and just decisions.
The Trust is scheduled to meet at 3 p.m. at Mani Ramdas Chavni (Chhoti Chhavni) in Ayodhya to deliberate on the preliminary report of the Special Investigation Team (SIT), constituted to probe allegations of donation-related irregularities, as well as the resignations of senior Trust functionaries that followed the controversy.
Ahead of the meeting, Ram Temple Trust Treasurer Govind Dev Giri said the media would be briefed after the deliberations and assured that all questions would be answered.
"I will speak to you after the meeting. I will be here for the next three days, and I will meet all of you and discuss everything in detail," he said.
He also assured journalists that a formal press conference would be held after the meeting. "All your questions will be answered," he added before entering the meeting venue.
Reacting to the Trust meeting, Arya Sant Varun Das Maharaj said the deliberations were being closely watched by people across the country and urged the Trust to engage with Ayodhya's saints.
"The entire world and the people of the country are watching the Ram Janmabhoomi Trust meeting, which is scheduled to be held at 3 p.m. But it is being heard that many members are not attending the meeting. They should also inform the saints of Ayodhya and sit with them..." he said.
Meanwhile, Peethadheeshwar of Tapasvi Chhawani, Jagadguru Paramhans Acharya Ji, expressed confidence in the Trust's functioning.
"It is a Trust meeting, and I have complete faith that whatever decision is taken will be appropriate and in accordance with justice," he said.
Mahant Sitaram Das of Saket Bhavan says, "This is certainly a matter of faith for the entire country and for devotees worldwide. It is a matter of devotion, trust, and penance, and therefore everyone's attention is focused on it. There should be transparency, and our faith should not be tarnished in any way. If anyone tries to malign it or assert control over it, the Sant Samaj will not tolerate it at all."

This is a moment of pure faith for millions. The temple is a dream come true after centuries of struggle. Let's trust the process and the saints. Jai Shri Ram! 🙏🚩
I support the call for transparency. The temple is not just a building—it's the soul of India. We need to ensure the committee works without hidden agendas and keeps the faith of devotees intact.
Interesting to see how this plays out. The resignations raised some eyebrows, but maybe it's just internal housekeeping. Still, the people deserve a clear explanation to maintain the sanctity of this historic project.
Jai Shri Ram! Have full faith in the Trust. As Jagadguru Paramhans Acharya said, the right decision will be taken. Don't let politics divide the movement. 🙏🇮🇳
Why are saints worried about being left out? The trust was set up for a reason. Let them do their work. But yes, some communication with the local sants would build more confidence among devotees. Hmm.
