Darbhanga. Precious jewelery of Kameshwar Religious Trust, run by the royal family in Darbhanga, Bihar, had gone missing from the SBI’s bolt.

In such a situation, as soon as the application was received, Darbhanga Police took immediate action and detained Trust Managers Vishnu Kumar Mishra and Uday Nath Jha and interrogated them. Where on the behest of the accused, gold businessman Shatrughan Lal was arrested and the missing goods were confiscated.
At the same time, Kumar Kapileshwar Singh, grandson of Kameshwar Singh, said in his application that the jewelery kept in the said bolt was removed and sold by conspiracy by Udayanath Jha alias Vishnu, the aton of Maharani Kamasundari Devi and Kedarnath Mishra, manager of Kameshwar Religious Trust and others.

“The Queen has now become very old, due to which she is no longer in her senses. Taking advantage of this, the above mentioned Udaynath Jha sold the valuable property worth crores of the temple of Gods and Goddesses of Kameshwar Religious Trust.”

Kameshwar Singh’s grandson Kumar Kapileshwar Singh said in his application that according to the biology of the Kameshwar Religious Trust, if the trust, whose sole trustee is the Queen at present, does not carry out the trust work properly, then any member of the royal family will be liable for the damages. Responsibility can be given to the male member. Under this rule, I am informing the district administration about the above mentioned things. So that the valuable jewelery of the Gods and Goddesses can be recovered and the culprits can be given appropriate punishment.
While talking to the media, Kumar Kapileshwar Singh said that we have a trust, which was formed by Sir Kameshwar Singh. Inside this, 108 temples have been built all over the world. Inside which there is a temple, pond, land and ornaments. Which was kept in the locker of SBI by the trustees of the trust. I came to know that the manager and Uday Nath Jha had opened the locker, taken out the jewelery and sold it.
