SIT Launches Probe Into Alleged Irregularities at Badrinath Temple

The investigation into the alleged financial irregularities and theft of offerings at the holy Badrinath Dham has escalated sharply. 

A high-level, three-member Special Investigation Team (SIT) arrived at the temple to probe the suspected misappropriation of funds, immediately turning up the heat on top administrative officials. 

The SIT, led by Garhwal Commissioner Anand Swaroop and featuring senior finance and management officers, launched its ground operations by targeting the temple's executive core.

According to sources, applicants must be graduates with a minimum of



20 years of experience in administration or finance. Candidates with prior experience in temple management will be given preference. 

The applicant must also be a follower of the Hindu faith. Applications for the CEO post can be submitted until July 18. 

A dedicated email ID is being created to receive applications. Once the applications are received, the committee will interact with shortlisted candidates before making the final selection.

The CEO will initially be appointed for a three-year term and will be required to reside in Ayodhya during the tenure.
