Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust general secretary Champat Rai denied land scam allegations and called them “misleading”. Champat Rai said, “The cost of this land, compared to its area is Rs 1,423 per sq feet, which is less than market value. To avoid any misuse of government taxes, we decided on net banking transactions. The land scam allegations are misleading.” Recently, two Opposition parties of Uttar Pradesh accused the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust, set up by the Centre last year, of pulling off an illegal land deal in Ayodhya.
