Congress Questions ONGC CSR Funds to RSS-Linked Orgs

Congress Questions ONGC CSR Funds to RSS-Linked Orgs

The Congress party in Karnataka has raised concerns about ONGC's CSR funds allegedly being given to organizations linked to the RSS.

They want more transparency and accountability in how public money is spent.

The Congress claims that Rs 668 crore has been given to 20 RSS-linked organizations over the past decade.

They also question the RSS's claim that it does not receive government funds, pointing out that public institutions and taxpayer-backed resources are funding their affiliates.

The Congress wants the RSS to answer questions about its funding and the moral implications of an unregistered organization receiving such funds.

The ONGC has not responded to these allegations.
