Following theft-related donation allegations involving Badrinath Dham, the Uttarakhand temple administration orders an inquiry. Multiple reports say the matter comes after similar attention on Ayodhya, with the Bharat Keerti Temple Corporation (BKTC) leadership stating that the allegations will be examined through an evidence-based process. BKTC president Hemant Dwivedi says that if the claims are proven during the investigation, no person found guilty will be spared and strict action will follow. BKTC chief executive officer Sohan Singh Rangad states that an inquiry committee has been formed and that its report will be prepared using available evidence. The sources add that the committee will rely on CCTV footage and statements provided by the parties concerned. The investigation is framed as a fact-finding exercise to verify whether any theft of donations occurred and, if so, to identify those responsible. Authorities do not state the specific time period or amount involved in the allegations in the cited reports, and they do not indicate whether any arrests have been made. The next step is the submission of the inquiry committee’s report based on the collected material.
