‘There should be SIT investigation into someone’s record-breaking visits to Ayodhya’, Akhilesh Yadav’s taunt on CM Yogi’s visit

Lucknow : Samajwadi Party national president and former Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav, without naming anyone, on Friday said that an SIT (Special Investigation Team) should be formed to investigate ‘someone’s record-breaking visits to Ayodhya’. “An SIT should also be formed to investigate someone’s record-breaking visits to Ayodhya,” the SP chief said in a post on ‘X’ amid Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath’s visit to Ayodhya on Friday.

Question on CM Yogi’s Ayodhya visit
In a sharp post hours after Adityanath addressed a public meeting in Ayodhya, Yadav asked why the chief minister’s speech contained “more threats than statements” and questioned whether Friday’s event was planned suddenly or on the day the Special Investigation Team (SIT) was formed.

Questions raised on SIT’s impartiality
The former Chief Minister said, “By visiting physically, one should not try to influence the work of the SIT, which is already surrounded by doubts due to its controversial members and tarnished image. Why was the face there today? There was a deliberate effort to raise the voice but why was there zero confidence? Why not meet your important people this time?” Yadav taunted and said that the public is saying ‘milk of milk, water of water’ and not ‘gold of gold, silver of silver’. He said that apart from the money offered, precious stones, precious metals and jewelery will also have to be accounted for.

It is noteworthy that on June 13, the Uttar Pradesh government constituted a three-member SIT following a request by Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra to investigate allegations of embezzlement of donation funds in the temple. The probe was ordered after Yadav on June 7 cited reports alleging that crores of rupees donated to the Ram temple were missing and urged the courts to take cognizance of the matter.
