Trust Leadership Faces Calls to Appoint CEO and Fill Vacancies

Kalikki Ram, the chairperson of the Ram Dal Trust, described the upcoming session as a "critical juncture" for the organisation. He highlighted that numerous board seats remain empty and that, for the first time, the trust will select a Chief Executive Officer to steer day‑to‑day operations. Emphasising the need to quell circulating rumors, Ram urged the selection panel to give precedence to candidates with direct involvement in the Ram Janmabhoomi campaign or those hailing from Ayodhya. He reiterated earlier accusations that past inclusion of members from distant states sparked controversy and harmed the city’s image.
