Amit Shah introduced the Foreign Contribution Regulation Amendment Bill, 2026 in Lok Sabha to address gaps in the 2010 FCRA law, especially managing foreign funds and assets after cancellation or lapse.
The Madras High Court ruled that NGOs receiving foreign donations should not be presumed guilty without evidence of misuse. In the case of Ellen Sharma Memorial Trust, the Court criticized the government for denying renewal of its FCRA registration, emphasizing that minor procedural errors shouldn’t hinder charitable work aimed at children’s education.
