India's Ram's sacrifices face religious corruption

A new investigation into donations at the Ram Mandir in India, one of the country's most prominent religious sites, has highlighted issues of lack of transparency and the risks of large sums of money and gold being stolen from visitor contributions. In June, eight individuals responsible for managing the donations were arrested, with authorities believing that the stolen amounts reach approximately 30 million rupees (around 314,000 USD). The temple is built on the ruins of the Babri Mosque, which was demolished in 1992. It attracts about 90,000 visitors daily, who contribute donations in various forms, including cash, gold, and jewelry. This makes it vulnerable to exploitation due to weak oversight and insufficient transparency. Experts emphasize the urgent need to implement strict financial controls, such as issuing receipts, digital documentation, and surveillance cameras, to ensure the protection of donations and reduce the likelihood of theft—especially given the large financial flows managed by major religious institutions in India.
