A video allegedly showing the theft of donations at Karnataka's Gaali Anjaneya Swamy Temple has sparked outrage among devotees. The footage shows two individuals counting donations, with one passing a bundle of cash to another, who pockets it. While head priest Ramachandra claims the incident occurred over a year ago, the video has alarmed worshippers who trust their offerings are used for the temple’s development. The temple administration has suspended two committee members and banned two cooks found guilty of the theft. In response, the temple has increased CCTV surveillance and involved volunteers in donation counting to prevent future incidents. Priest Ramachandra reassured devotees that safeguards are now in place to protect offerings.
