FCRA amendment bill has similar provisions like UPA-era law: Panel chief Jaiswal

BJP MP Sanjay Jaiswal led a meeting on the Foreign Contribution (Regulation) Amendment Bill, 2026. He noted that major provisions in the bill mirror those from the UPA government’s 2010 law. Various religious groups including Syro Malabar Church and ISKCON shared their views during the committee session. Opposition parties allege the bill may harm funding for minority organizations, a claim the government denies.
