Claim
Champat Rai resigned yesterday; the Ram Mandir Trust confirmed it today but has not yet accepted the resignation.
“कल चंपत राय ने इस्तीफा दिया। आज राम मंदिर ट्रस्ट ने कंफर्म कर दिया। लेकिन अभी तक इस्तीफा मंजूर नहीं किया है।”▶ Watch source segment
Rationale
Central assertion (Rai resigned the prior day, Trust confirmed it on broadcast day, resignation not yet formally accepted) is supported. The Trust confirmed receipt and deferred a decision to its 11 July meeting, which corroborates 'not yet accepted.'
