During this period, one of the members of the mediation panel took advantage of his proximity to the Aurobindo Ashram and made its managing director Manoj Das Gupta to come up with the offer.
Media reports said that on 16 October this year, the Aurobindo Ashram has offered its land for the setting up of a national institute for social harmony. It was also the day when the Supreme Court reserved its judgement on the Ram Janambhoomi-Babri Masjid dispute case.
The ashram runs Sri Aurobindo Sadhnalaya at Ramkot in Ayodhya which is next to the disputed site. It is this place that Aurobindo Ashram officials offered to donate, but not without courting controversy.
“I would allege that the member misused the trust the ashram administrators had in him,” said a source with access to the officials.
