Claim
Under the trust's bylaws, accepting the two resignations will require a two-thirds majority of trust members.
“दोनों के इस्तीफे पर फैसला ट्रस्ट के बाय लॉस के तहत होगा। इस्तीफा मंजूर करने के लिए दो तिहाई बहुमत की जरूरत होगी।”▶ Watch source segment
Rationale
The claim refers to the resignations of Champat Rai and Anil Mishra from the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust amid the donation theft case. Multiple independent Indian outlets reporting on or just before the broadcast date (July 1-2, 2026) consistently state that the trust's bylaws require a two-thirds majority of trustees to accept the resignations, matching the anchor's statement. No fact-checker or primary source contradicts this; confidence is moderated slightly because the bylaws themselves are not publicly available and reporting relies on trust sources.
