It has been 27 days since the first recovery of allegedly embezzled Ram Mandir donation funds.

Rationale
The first recovery of allegedly embezzled Ram Mandir donation funds occurred on/around June 26, 2026 (the day after the June 25 FIR and the eight arrests). Measured against the July 2, 2026 broadcast, that is only about 6–7 days, not 27. A 27-day gap would place the first recovery in early June, before the FIR, arrests, or any seizure existed, so the figure of 27 days is factually wrong.
