The Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra trust, responsible for the management and construction of the Ram temple in Ayodhya, has appointed retired Air Marshal Jeetendra Mishra to serve as the organization's first Chief Executive Officer (CEO). The appointment is part of an ongoing effort to professionalize the management of the temple premises as it prepares for increased visitor traffic and long-term operational needs.

While the trust has not released extensive details regarding the specific scope of the CEO's responsibilities, the move is widely viewed as an attempt to bring high-level administrative oversight to the site. The appointment of a retired military official suggests a focus on disciplined management and security coordination, which are critical given the high-profile nature of the temple. The trust continues to oversee the final phases of construction and the logistical challenges associated with managing large-scale religious tourism. No further details regarding the transition period or the specific mandate of the CEO have been provided by the trust at this time.
