Claim
Champat Rai has already resigned from the Ram Janmabhoomi Trust, and Anil Mishra has also resigned.

Rationale
Multiple independent Indian outlets, including the government broadcaster Newsonair, confirm that both Champat Rai (Trust General Secretary) and Anil Mishra (trustee) tendered resignations from the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust on moral grounds around June 26–27, 2026, days before the June 29 broadcast, amid a donation-embezzlement probe. The claim that both had already resigned is therefore accurate; formal board acceptance was still pending a July 6 vote, but that does not contradict the assertion that resignations were submitted.
