#Breaking Delhi High Court dismisses a PIL by Association for Democratic Reforms demanding constitution of an independent tribunal or committee to oversee the enforcement of #FCRA.
#DelhiHighCourt #ADR @adrspeaks
#DelhiHighCourt #ADR @adrspeaks
A Bench of CJ Satish Chandra Sharma and J Subramonium Prasad holds that mere possibility that a statute will not be administered adequately is not ground for the statute to be invalidated or for the Court to supplement its wisdom with the Legislature’s.
“To set up a committee or tribunal is a purely policy decision. The legislature alone has the power to set up a tribunal or committee, under the requisite statute, to adjudicate disputes arising from it...

PFI is banned for 5 years as there is provision for 5 yrs under UAPA ACT (every 5 yr Ban is renewed for SIMI too)
This time PFI Leaders can be declared as terrorist too.
UAPA was amended (2019) to designate individuals as terrorists

A good opportunity to pull up this rogue #FCRA funded organization which wrote to UN in 2017 for a fake persecution of Christians and fake church attack. Evangelical Fellowship of India in this letter had blamed the Govt as well as Hindus targeting Christians
Organisations and People endorsing this letter included World Evangelical Alliance, @JohnDayal and other Conversion enablers.
They have received ~ 14 crore rupees in the last 4 years, via FCRA funds.

#SupremeCourt to hear plea challenging @HMOIndia notification dated May 18, 2021, which extended the date for compliance of specific provisions of the FCRA. NGOs have also challenged the constitutional validity of the 2020 amendment #FCRA
SG Tushar Mehta: This 1976 legislation was amended in 1985... earlier if govt of China is contributing in some NGO in India was regulated
SG: but it appears from the statement that experience showed that other countries NGOs were also infusing funds in India and thus definition was widened to include all such donations

Right to life and liberty under Article 21 does not encompass the right to receive unregulated foreign contributions, the Central government had told the Supreme Court while defending amendments made in 2020 to the Foreign Contribution (Regulation) Act (FCRA)
The plea by Noel Harper of NGO Care And Share Charitable Trust challenged Sections 7, 12A, 12(1A) and 17 inserted in the FCRA by the Foreign Contribution (Regulation) Amendment Act, 2020 as ultra vires Articles 14, 19 and 21 of the Constitution of India #SupremeCourt
On 14 Sept. 2021, @the_hindu reported that the government has restricted funding for 10 international NGOs working on issues related to the environment, climate change (specifically their ‘advocacy against coal’) and child rights.
thehindu.com/news/national/…
thehindu.com/news/national/…
This has been done by placing these NGOs on the Prior Reference Category (PRC) which implies that when a foreign donor would want to transfer money to a recipient association in India (which is in the PRC), they would require the prior clearance of the Ministry of Home Affairs.
Our editor Shravani had written a post explaining how the #FCRA, amended in Sept. 2020, resulted in over-regulation of civil society organisations, having a chilling effect on effective public participation of CSOs in opposing government policies lawandotherthings.com/2020/11/over-r…

#Amnestyinternational has had a rather dubious role in #India. It's funding & activities have been repeatedly questioned by both UPA & NDA governments. Former PM Manmohan Singh had red flagged the NGO during #KudanKulam nuke plant issue. In fact in Feb 2014 UPA froze it's funding
In 2009 #Amnestyinternational had #FCRA issues. Even under NDA rule Amnesty funding remained rather opaque. @dir_ed probed dubious fund flow pattern. RBI put Amnesty in prior permission category due to suspect funds flow, acc to the #Govt. Even during UPA funding was suspect: BJP
MHA had #Amnestyinternational funding looked into & concluded that Human Rights cannot be an excuse for defying the law of the land.MHA said in order to circumvent the FCRA regulations Amnesty UK remitted large amounts of money to 4 entities registered in India classifying it FDI

1. Last week I was invited to address a NGO platform in a European country to speak and challenge them on #localisation agenda.
#localisation is a term referred to strengthen local NGOs who are often first responders to disasters.
#localisation is a term referred to strengthen local NGOs who are often first responders to disasters.
2. The term became a buzzword after the World Humanitarian Summit in 2016, when it was realised that less than 0.3% funding was reaching to local/national actors. Hence a commitment was made to pass on at least 25% to them by 2020. #localisation
3. Anyways, while addressing them I asked, I am seeing 15 organisations part of this NGO platform. What if I was addressing platform of any other European country, or North America, or Japan. Would I see different NGOs there or same?
