Ayodhya: Gopal Nagarakatte, alias Gopal Rao, who was a special invitee member of the Shri Ram Janmbhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust, on Wednesday claimed that he has not been removed from the trust and was only asked to stay away from its meetings for some time.
He also asserted that all allegations against him, except those related to the alleged donation theft, were false.
Speaking to reporters for the first time since the recent meeting of the trust, Rao said, “The trust has some invited members. After this controversy began, two people resigned on moral grounds. Their resignations were accepted. Everyone then decided that I should not attend the trust’s proceedings for a few days. I will cooperate with the new arrangement. Once the new team takes charge, I will step aside,” he said.
