Food for Thought
1. GOI does not appear to know the total amount remitted to all 34,803 associations registered under FCRA.
2. Why is the Secular world remitting thousands of crs into India every year?
3. Is there any underlying motive behind most of the inflows going to the Southern states, Delhi and Maharashtra?
4. Does GOI have a reasonable estimate of the money that comes in from the Middle East through the hawala route?
5. Should not the Home Ministry have independent Chartered Accountants to randomly audit the accounts of associations to ensure that money is used for what it was meant for and reporting under FCRA is correct?
6. Must not the Home Ministry initiate penal action against associations that fail to submit audited accounts as stipulated?
7. In the absence of the above there is a possibility that some inflows could be used for spreading Terrorism!
8. What is the impact of these large inflows on National Security and India’s social fabric?
9. Does not GOI need to further regulate inflows and tighten controls?
10.It appears that the nation has so far not paid adequate attention to inflows under FCRA and its consequences.
I would urge all followers of Dharma to share their wealth with schools and hospitals in both tribal and rural areas. To know about organizations click here.
