Nirmohi Akhara seeks Ram Temple Trust reconstitution
The Nirmohi Akhara, a religious group, has asked the Supreme Court to change the Ram Temple Trust in Ayodhya.
They want it to be a public trust instead of a private one.
They also want the court to make sure that the temple follows certain traditions and that the original idols are put back.
The group believes the current trust does not follow the Supreme Court's earlier decision about the temple.
They want the government to have a say in who is on the trust and how decisions are made.
Nirmohi Akhara has filed an application in the Supreme Court seeking to reconstitute the Ram Temple Trust as a public trust.
The application argues that the current trust structure is inconsistent with the Supreme Court's 2019 verdict.
The group wants the trust to include safeguards for oversight by seers of the Ramanandi Bairagi Sampradaya.
They seek directions to restore the original deities of Shri Ram Lalla Virajman to the sanctum sanctorum.
The application also asks for guiding principles for the appointment of trustees by the Centre.
