Jairam Ramesh alleged that large-scale theft of Ram Temple donations had been carried out by people linked to the RSS, calling the organisation a "fraudulent outfit".
Mahant Dinendra Das said the "entire fault" lay with Gopal Rao Nagarkatte, whose role in overseeing temple operations and donation management is also under scrutiny.
The plea said a CBI-led multi-disciplinary SIT should investigate the alleged financial irregularities and other purported illegalities concerning the affairs and administration of the temple Trust.
