Claim

According to the UP Police investigation, Lavkush Mishra bought this land while he was working at the Ram Mandir.

“यूपी पुलिस की जांच के मुताबिक लवकुश मिश्रा ने यह जमीन राम मंदिर में काम करने के दौरान ही खरीदी थी।”

Rationale

Multiple contemporaneous mainstream reports (AajTak, TV9, The Statesman, Republic, Business Standard) corroborate that Lavkush Mishra, an employee counting donations at the Ram Mandir, purchased a plot (registered 16 Oct 2025 in his wife Supriya's name) during his tenure at the temple, and that UP Police/SIT are investigating whether the purchase money links to the alleged donation theft. The investigators are explicitly examining purchases made after the accused became associated with the trust. The claim accurately reflects the police investigation's finding that the land was bought while he worked at the Ram Mandir. Minor imprecision: the land was registered in his wife's name rather than his own, and the source-of-funds/'proceeds of crime' link remains under investigation rather than proven, but the core assertion about timing is substantiated.
