RSS Leader Urges Patience, Awaits SIT Report
Senior Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) leader Indresh Kumar on Friday said that the investigation into the alleged Ayodhya Ram Mandir donation embezzlement case should be allowed to proceed without interference, stressing that a final view must be taken only after the Special Investigation Team (SIT) submits its report.
Speaking to ANI, Kumar said the government has already constituted an SIT, and the matter is currently under investigation. "The SIT has already been established by the government, and the investigation is going on. We should wait for the investigation report," he told ANI.
RSS leader urged patience until the investigation is complete. "I have also seen the media and politics conducting trials with great noise regarding 'Saffron terror'. And therefore, I will only say that once the complete SIT report comes, the Government of India will take further action according to it, and everyone will welcome it," he added.
