Alok Kumar said millions of donor families deserve a swift probe and strict legal action if irregularities are proven.
- On Thursday, Vishva Hindu Parishad International President Alok Kumar demanded immediate registration of an FIR and deployment of "best and most capable" police officers to investigate alleged donation embezzlement at the Ram Mandir.
- The demand follows Tuesday's submission of a preliminary report by a three-member Special Investigation Team investigating allegations of misappropriation involving temple donation boxes and handling procedures.
- Kumar cited media reports of security camera footage allegedly showing theft, arguing "no further fact-finding is required" before filing charges to ensure culprits are punished within 4 months.

- Amid political criticism, the organization postponed its annual management committee meeting scheduled for this week in Ayodhya, citing "inevitable circumstances" surrounding the ongoing investigation.
