K.C. Venugopal, Congress general secretary and MP, addressed media outside Guruvayur temple on Saturday and demanded a Supreme Court-monitored investigation into alleged misappropriation of donations to the Ayodhya Ram temple. He described the matter as India's biggest temple scam, criticized the Uttar Pradesh SIT probe as a farce, and said Congress will raise the issue in the July 20 Parliament session. The temple trust was constituted by the Centre; no independent confirmation of specific allegations such as erased CCTV footage has been reported.
