FCRA amendment is India's internal matter, says MEA, hits back at US lawmaker's church takeover claim
India's Ministry of External Affairs stated proposed FCRA amendments are an internal legislative matter. US Congressman Riley Moore criticised the bill as an attack against Christians. The proposed amendments empower the government to manage foreign contributions and assets. This legislation aims to ensure religious character of places of worship is maintained. The government also reduced penalties for violations of the Foreign Contribution Act.
