Udupi Seer Stays Silent as Ram Mandir Funding Allegations Surface

Udupi’s long‑established Pejawar seer, a respected spiritual authority in Karnataka, has remained tight‑fisted about recent accusations concerning financial irregularities tied to the construction of the Ayodhya Ram Mandir.

Local media and some community members allege that a portion of the donations raised for the temple’s building was siphoned off, prompting calls for an investigation. The seer, whose role traditionally involves guiding religious and charitable efforts, has chosen to stay silent, stating that “truth must come out” before any definitive statements can be made.

The lack of comment has left villagers and supporters divided, with some demanding transparency while others respect the tradition’s cautious approach. Despite the controversy, the pejawar’s stance highlights larger concerns about accountability in high‑profile religious projects. Source: Google News – Udupi.
