The Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust on Monday invited applications for the post of the first chief executive officer (CEO) of the Ram temple in Ayodhya, setting July 18 as the deadline for submission of names.
In a post on X, the trust said applications would be accepted till 4 pm on the last date. The appointment assumes significance as it comes in the wake of the alleged embezzlement of temple donations that prompted the trust to
introduce the post as part of measures aimed at strengthening its administrative and financial management.
According to the notification issued by the trust, the CEO will be appointed on a three-year contractual term, extendable based on satisfactory performance.
The posting will be in Ayodhya, while salary and other service benefits will be decided through mutual discussion, according to the details shared by the Trust on X.
