Ayodhya: Former Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust general secretary Champat Rai on Tuesday visited the Tapasvi Chhawani temple in Ayodhya, marking his first public appearance outside the trust premises since allegations of embezzlement of Ram temple donations surfaced nearly two months ago.
Since the controversy erupted, Rai remained largely confined to Teerth Kshetra Bhawan, a three-storey building located barely 200 metres from the temple complex.
