An important meeting of saints was held on Thursday regarding the theft of Ram temple offerings. More than 100 saints of Ayodhya participated in this meeting held at Maniram Das Cantonment in Ayodhya. Apart from this, many officials associated with Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) and RSS also attended the meeting. However, in the meeting, only the saints were kept on the front and arrangements were made for the saints to sit in round table formation, while the leaders of Sangh and VHP remained present in the hall. This meeting of saints was named Sant Mandal Seminar, which was presided over by Mahant Kamal Nayan Das.
Saints supported the action against the culprits in the offering theft case. Sant Samaj said that action should be taken against whoever is found guilty in the investigation, but it is wrong to question the entire Sant Samaj and Ram Mandir Trust. He accused anti-Ram and anti-Sanatan forces of spoiling the atmosphere. Mahant Vaidehi Ballabh Sharan said that the Yogi government has conducted an impartial investigation into this matter. The saints allege that anti-Ram Temple forces are now spreading confusion over the theft of offerings. Sant Samaj said that Lord Shri Ram stands firmly with the devotees of Ram and the construction of the temple.
