Opposition parties have launched a salvo of criticism against the ruling BJP and RSS, accusing them of shielding influential figures linked to the Ram temple chadhava theft. Congress legislators have staged protests in New Delhi, demanding an independent committee to oversee the probe.
The BJP, while acknowledging the seriousness of the allegations, has reiterated that the investigation is being handled by the police and that any lapses will be addressed once the final report is submitted. The dispute has added a fresh layer of tension to an already sensitive religious and cultural issue.
