Supreme Court Upholds NGO FCRA Renewal, Rejects Centre Plea
Imagine a group that gets money from other countries to help kids, this is the NGO in question.
The government tried to stop them from getting this money.
But the Supreme Court said the group wasn't doing anything wrong and said there was no proof of misuse.
The court said the government was wrong.
Therefore, the NGO will still be allowed to accept funds.
Supreme Court dismissed Centre's plea on FCRA renewal.
The Centre argued the NGO violated Section 7 of the FCRA.
The Supreme Court found no evidence of fund misuse.
Madras High Court had previously ordered the renewal.
The NGO focuses on child welfare and education.
