Temple trustee collecting money but not publishing

Dear Client,
In the given scenario, you can file a written complaint a temple trust's trustees for misappropriation of funds to the Charity Commissioner or Deputy Charity Commissioner or Asst. Charity Commissioner appointed under Section 5 of the Gujarat Public Trust Act, 1950(as amended in 2011) who are empowered to initiate inquiries based on a complaint from a person interested in the public trust, failing which, you can file a civil suit in a Civil Court (District Court) for breach of constitution of trust or mismanagement by the trustees. Gather evidences that supports and establish your complaint either before the Charity Commissioner or the District Court. Once your complaint proved, that may lead to removal of the trustees from the Trust. Consult with an Advocate for tailored advice and steps before taking any legal action to navigate the issue effectively.

Dear Sir,

A Temple Trustee MUST Maintain Accounts

Under the Gujarat Public Trusts Act, every trustee must:

Maintain proper accounts and receipts

Keep a register of all donations

File annual audited accounts with the Charity Commissioner

Use the money only for temple purposes

Not misappropriate funds

Not doing this is an offence.
