FCRA Licence of Sadbhavana Trust, NGO Empowering Marginalized Women, Cancelled by Union Government
The Sadbhavana Trust, a Delhi-based NGO working towards empowering Dalit and Muslim women, has had its Foreign Contribution Registration Act (FCRA) licence cancelled by the Union government. The cancellation prohibits the trust from receiving or utilizing foreign grants and is attributed to violations such as the failure to open an FCRA bank account. This development follows similar actions against other women-focused NGOs, sparking concerns among retired civil servants regarding the treatment of organizations working for the betterment of marginalized sections of society.
