Police and intelligence-related reports indicate that gold items donated to Sree Padmanabhaswamy Temple in Kerala are missing. Multiple outlets cite a report submitted to the State Home Department and referenced in police findings as stating that nearly 78 grams of gold bars and coins offered by devotees for temple maintenance have gone missing over recent months. The reports describe the missing items as part of offerings connected to the upkeep of the shrine, rather than a single recent incident. One account also mentions that a gold lamp associated with the temple has reportedly been replaced with silver, suggesting potential changes to temple items that may be linked to the missing gold. While the reports flag the issue as a theft or suspected theft, details on who may be responsible, whether any suspects are identified, and the timeline of when the gold went missing are not provided in the excerpts. The issue is presented as emerging months after a separate high-profile controversy involving Sabarimala, with the new allegations raising concerns about security and handling of temple offerings. Authorities are expected to investigate the claims based on the submitted findings.
