Claim

Mahant Kamal Nayan Das, successor to the ailing Trust president, has said 'all of them are dishonest — whom all should we name?'

“उनके उत्तराधिकारी महंत कमल नयन दास ने कहा है कि सब के सब बेईमान हैं। हम किस-किस का नाम गिनाएं?”

Rationale

Multiple independent Hindi and wire reports from June 10-18, 2026 (before the July 2 broadcast) confirm that Mahant Kamal Nayan Das, widely described as the successor to ailing Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust president Nritya Gopal Das, publicly said in the Ram Mandir donation-theft row that the investigators themselves are dishonest (बेईमान), that everyone is accusing everyone else, and that he would not enumerate names ('whom all should we name') while alluding to unnamed people who went from bicycles to mansions. The anchor's quote is a close paraphrase of these well-attested remarks; the exact sentence 'सब के सब बेईमान हैं' was not found verbatim in accessible reports, which slightly tempers confidence, but the attribution, role, and substance of the statement are accurate.
