Nice step !

This has been in the works since long. The trilateral supply chain resilience initiative has been there since June 2020.

It seems the new FCRA guidelines are causing real pain to many.

Looks like GOI needs to airlift and stock up on Burnol too for the NGOs.

Japan, Australia live on american c*ck.. The alliance with US has existential significance for Japan..
With the sudden outpouring of love and support from US to India in the past couple of days, I am pretty certain that Modi has made substantive concessions in the strategic sphere to America.. We are heading towards a meaningful quasi military alliance with America, and also with its partners Japan and Australia.. ASEAN is held hostage by China economically, so India wants ASEAN countries out of any Supply Chain resilience initiative..

Is seems to me that the mobilization of US inclusive,CEOs towards covid relief in India to be eerily similar to the tweet storm by Indian celebrities during farmer's protests when they trended #Indiastandunited #Indiaagainstpropaganda.
Looks like u.s govt is in full damage control mode.
That time we were busting 'toolkit' narrative, this time around u.s govt is trying to recover lost goodwill among indian populace.

''Found this on teetar.. in this attachment alone there is 27.5 crores of collection.''

If they really wanted to contribute they they can always do it to pm-cares fund but no cause 'mudi goberment evil'.
Also money amounting to around 2.5 billion u.s.d is sitting ideal in indian banks since the past year.Now that's a huge sum of money. If the (((NGOs))) really wanted to help they could have utilized that.

Ban foreign donations to Indian NGOs: Ex-CBI acting chief writes in RSS mouthpiece

In an article in RSS mouthpiece Organiser, M. Nageswara Rao says only overseas Indians not acting as agents for others should be allowed to donate to NGOs.

www.google.com

Rao wrote that further analysis of the FCRA data indicates that the total amount brought forward by the FCRA-NGOs “as unspent money from past foreign donations” as on 1 April 2017 is a “whopping Rs 15,907 crore”. He said more than 50% of this amount is lying with “about 2% of the FCRA-NGOs”.

Exactly, if India has some self respect and wants to keep her civilization she must immediately ban all foreign NGO donation.No amount of tweaking of FCRA will do any good.

Very insightful article on foreign NGO funding by N Nageswar Rao,former interim director CBI on RSS mouthpiece:-


The only way to save the country from the menace of NGOs which are endangering the unity and integrity by causing civilisational osteoporosis, is to ban all sorts of foreign ‘donations’, whatever may be their purpose

M. Nageswara Rao


There is no such thing as free lunch. Charity especially that of the foreign variety, comes with stated or hidden agenda. Large amount of funding for the so-called non-profit or non-commercial sector in India is generated as overseas ‘donations’ by various organisations that are affiliated to foreign State and non-State actors. Here is a snapshot of the foreign donations received by entities registered under the Foreign Contribution Regulation Act (FCRA) over the last two decades.


The data make it evident that notwithstanding the political colour of the Central Government and the best efforts of the present one which has a better record of FCRA enforcement, the quantum of FCRA funds has been on relentless rise.


A humongous amount of Rs. 2,08,096 crore of foreign ‘donations’ has been pumped into the country, in the last two decades, by foreign sources through official open channels by remitting to FCRA-NGOs. This discussion does not factor in the amount of foreign funds that gets into the country through illegal routes or otherwise camouflaged as foreign investment. Since it is extremely difficult to collect such data, one can only hazard a guess about its volume, details and purposes.


A further analysis of the FCRA data indicates that as on April 1, 2017 the total amount brought forward by the FCRA-NGOs as unspent money from past foreign ‘donations’ is a whopping Rs 15,907 crore, more than 50% of which is lying with about 2% of the FCRA-NGOs. Interestingly, foreign donors continue to remit fresh funds every year to the same small group of entities. Why do foreign ‘donors’ continue to pour in big bucks to the entities that are already sitting on a staggering pile of cash? Or, are the foreign ‘donors’ supplying money to their representatives or donees to build cash reserves for some future plans? Whatever it may be, the prognosis seems very ominous!


As a nation, we have failed to ask ourselves an elementary question: Why should foreigners ‘donate’ such humongous amounts to certain Indians, unless they have an agenda? If their motivation is purely philanthropy alone, then why are they not donating their funds for the needy and destitute of their own countries? Why this unrequited love for India and Indians to the exclusion of their own people?

Serious concerns have been expressed from many quarters about the role of foreign funds in creating extraordinary influence, both subtle as well as obvious, on the executive, legislative, judicial, political, religious and economic processes of our country, under various guises such as humanitarian, human rights, gender justice and social intervention. It is also a truism that foreign funds have been the prime mover for changing the religious demography, interference in our indigenous religious traditions and practices, creating hurdles in our socio-economic progress, creating and aggravating various fautlines and the consequent unrest, colonising our minds and subverting our national discourse to suit certain sinister purposes. I am not going into all those details here lest this piece becomes a long dissertation.


Those who claim to represent the so-called ‘civil society’ of India are ironically least funded by that society but mostly by the foreign sources, which is a pointer to the fact that the so-called issues they are espousing do not resonate and have popular connect with the civilisationally-rooted common Indians. Therefore, no self-respecting sovereign country much less a civilisational nation with aspirations of super power, can afford such blatant meddling in its domestic affairs.


India is not a beggar nation that needs foreign charity. Charity presupposes an unequal relationship, for, the receiving hand is always below the giving hand. Being one of the biggest emerging economies, we are capable of internally generating the money required for philanthropic, relief and rehabilitation, religious and charitable purposes. The institutionalised CSR funding is one such prime example. Given that we have rightly been refusing foreign aid even during disasters, it is high time that we revisit our public and legislative policy towards foreign ‘donations’, a substantial part of which are suspected to be funding the fifth columns and breaking India programmes.


It is heartening to note that the present Central Government has been very sincere and proactive in enforcing the FCRA. Yet, it hardly has any impact on the quantum of remittances for the simple reason that the problem is FCRA itself. Therefore, no amount of tweaking of the law can mitigate the danger. Hence, the only way to save the country from this serious menace which is endangering its unity and integrity by causing civilisational osteoporosis, is by banning all sorts of foreign ‘donations’, whatever may be their purpose.


However, there should be an exception to this, namely: India has long recognised the valuable contribution of its diaspora who have civilisational and emotional connect with India. It is mutually beneficial for India and its diaspora to strengthen this civilisational umbilical connection. Hence, donations made by the overseas citizens of India in their individual capacity from their personal funds, and not acting as agents or conduits for others, that too for the limited purpose of preservation, study, promotion and propagation of ancient Indian texts and traditional Indian knowledge, may be allowed. Finally, it goes without saying that any foreigner who is genuinely interested in philanthropy and wants to help India is always welcome to donate to the Prime Minister’s National Relief Fund.

Y'all nibbiars the Pentagon Propaganda is working
Lots of misinformation from western media

LOL that picture is from the LG Chem gas leak that happened in Visakhapatnam last Summer.

New York Post....that explains a lot.

 

[tarunraju]

Haan BC, banning Paler (a Twitter clone used by US right-wing), and countless US right-wing social media accounts just this January, was "aligned with the US view of free speech."

These fuckers need to be called out at every level.

 

[AMCA]

Half a billion cases. If this is true then we should have developed herd immunity. Western media is an expert in fudging data when it comes to India. This is like 256 M people who participated in kissan protests.

 

[tarunraju]

"Experts fear"

"528 million Indians have COVID-19"

FUD. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fear,_uncertainty,_and_doubt

 

[RedPumpkin]

What the frack is a civil society? Who decideds as to what constitutes a civil society? Is a guy working on the road a civil society member? How about a small shop keeper? What are qualifications to becoming a member of this so called civil society ?

Been hearing this BS from last year...the real numbers are half a billion etc. clearly, proof not needed. People like these said India had reached herd immunity last year, therefore lower cases. So what happened now? New /old story now, half a billion again...if that’s true, India has the lowiest death rate from covid in the world....by a huge amount.

I’m sure the cases are more than detection but simply throwing figures is dumb, especially when we can’t know . As of now, anyways.

Yes like that 300 million farmers protesting?

Can't they at make their false propaganda at least somewhat believable?

I fear that the us death toll is at least 10 times higher. They don't want to report it cos. It dents their image as a superpower. Also international experts and human rights defenders have repeatedly warned about blacks being killed at the hands of the police and they also have lack of access to vaccine. They also celebrate something called Thanksgiving where they insert stuff into a turkeys rectum
