Bar association protests charge sheet filing in Ram Mandir theft case

The record

Written from the 2 reports below. Nothing here is unsourced.

Lawyers in Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh, have protested after police allegedly moved to file a charge sheet in the Ram Mandir donation theft case without giving them prior notice or disclosure.
The case stems from the alleged theft of donations made at the Ram Mandir, one of India's most prominent and politically significant temples.
The lawyers' core complaint is procedural: that the charge sheet was being filed secretly, denying the parties visibility into the prosecution's filings.
Both available reports, from Indian outlet Aaj Tak, present the story from the protesting lawyers' side; the police have not offered a public explanation in this coverage, so it is unclear whether the filing was deliberately concealed or a routine step the bar opposes.
The standoff matters because it pits procedural transparency against prosecutorial momentum in a sensitive case tied to the temple.
What happens next depends on whether the charge sheet is formally filed, how the court handles the objection, and whether the bar escalates its protest in a way that disrupts local court work.
