Hello everyone,
My
NGO’s FCRA registration was recently cancelled under Section 14(1)(e) on the
ground that we did not utilise foreign contribution for three consecutive
years.
However,
during this period we were actively working in health, nutrition and tribal
development using domestic funds, as foreign donors withdrew and COVID disrupted
funding. We had replied to the Show Cause Notice with activity proof, but the
registration was still cancelled.
I would like to know:
Has

non-utilisation / alleged inactivity…..(click to read
