Jagran Correspondent, Ayodhya | Anukalp Mishra, a resident of Milkipur, Ayodhya, who is seen as the mastermind of the Ram Temple donation theft case, has considerable influence in his village, Basawan, said his aunt, Neha Mishra. She alleged that he used his influence to get things done through senior temple officials and local public representatives.

Neha, who came forward to expose Anukalp, claimed that he, in a short time, not only purchased several valuable plots of land, but also got his brother-in-law, Lavkush Mishra and other acquaintances appointed to the temple administration. He also purchased a valuable flat in Noida, she added.

Neha said that he had spent a lot of money and displayed his grandeur at the Bhagwat Katha held in April. Trust General Secretary Champat Rai himself attended the event two or three times.

Neha Mishra's Bitter Relationship with Anukalp And His Family

Neha explained that she was married to Anukalp's uncle, Bijendra Mishra, in 2016, but the marriage ended a few months later due to her husband's illicit relationship. The case is pending in the family court. By court order, she has been granted a room to live in Basavan village. During a Bhagwat Katha, Anukalp and his father, Ravindra Mishra, along with his brothers, broke the lock of the room and threw away her belongings. Upon receiving the information, she arrived in Basavan from Gorakhpur on April 30th with her mother and sisters. Anukalp, Bijendra, and others assaulted her.

When the Inayatnagar police were informed, Station House Officer Ratan Sharma arrived, but the police remained defiant in their presence. Instead, cops began questioning her as to why she came there. No action has been taken since, she claimed.

"When Anukalp got a job at the temple, he also got his brother-in-law, Lavkush, hired there. He was earning so much money that he began to financially support his relatives from time to time," said Neha.

Bijendra remarried while the case was pending in court, so he bought her a flat in Noida. He is living there with his second wife. Anukalp not only supports them financially but has also given money to his second wife's father, Neha added. She said that since getting a job at the temple, he has purchased expensive land at five or six locations.
