Rationale
As of the July 1, 2026 broadcast, only Champat Rai and trustee Anil Mishra had resigned from the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust (submitted June 26-27 amid the donation embezzlement probe). The Trust publicly confirmed the resignations had been received but not accepted, with a decision deferred to its next meeting around July 6-7; until then both remained in their positions. The anchor's statement that Anil Mishra continued as usual because his resignation had not yet been accepted is consistent with the evidence available on the broadcast date.
