Ram Temple Trust Gets Its First Woman Trustee
The trust also named a retired Air Marshal as its first CEO and filled three vacancies after resignations and a trustee’s death, officials said.
On Wednesday, the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust appointed retired Air Marshal Jeetendra Mishra as its first Chief Executive Officer and inducted three new trustees: educationist Nirmala Yadav, advocate Madan Mohan Pandey, and businessman Mahesh Bhagchandka.
These appointments fill vacancies left by the passing of Bimlendra Mohan Mishra last year and resignations of former general secretary Champat Rai and member Anil Mishra following a donation theft controversy.
Yadav, a PhD holder and former college principal with 19 years of administrative experience, becomes the Trust's first female member. She described her appointment as a 'matter of joy and pride.'
Advocate Madan Mohan Pandey, 74, brings extensive legal experience, having represented the trust in the Supreme Court between 1990 and 2019 and served as Additional Advocate General of Uttar Pradesh for six years.
Newly named CEO Mishra pledged to serve the temple after 43 years in the Indian Air Force, while Yadav promised to improve facilities and security with 'dedication, hard work and honesty.
