Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) national convenor Arvind Kejriwal on Sunday questioned the alleged lack of action in the Ram Temple donation row, claiming that no FIR has been registered despite allegations of large-scale theft of donations and suggesting that action against those involved could destabilise the government. In a post on X, Kejriwal said that the Ram Temple represents the faith of crores of Hindus and questioned why no FIR had been filed despite allegations that donations worth crores of rupees had been stolen.

Whom is the government protecting? No matter how big the people involved in this sin may be, throw them straight into jail. Protecting the faith of crores of people is essential," Kejriwal wrote. In a video message shared along with the post, the former Delhi Chief Minister alleged that cash and valuables donated to the temple had been stolen and questioned the absence of action by investigative agencies.
"Hundreds of millions of rupees in donations have been stolen from Ayodhya's Ram Temple. It is being said that cash worth about 200 crore rupees has been stolen. And many boxes of diamonds and jewellery have been stolen. And not even one FIR has been filed. Neither the UP police filed an FIR, nor the ED filed any FIR, nor the CBI filed any FIR," Kejriwal said. Claiming that influential individuals were allegedly involved in the matter, Kejriwal said, "They have governments in both the Centre and UP.
No raid, no arrest. They say very big names are involved. If action is taken, the government may also fall. In your opinion, who is more important to save? The government or the faith of hundreds of millions of people?" The remarks come amid an ongoing probe into allegations related to Ram Mandir offerings. Ends
