Nritya Gopal Das is the chairperson of the trust, which is scheduled to hold a major meeting on July 6 to discuss the situation following the resignation of two of its principal trustees, Champat Rai and Anil Mishra, in the wake of the controversy over missing donations at the Ram temple.
Despite the age issues, Das has previously attended some Trust meetings virtually, and with the current main meeting just five days away, his chances of attending remain uncertain, sources said.
