Olympian MC Mary Kom’s boxing foundation gets five-year FCRA licence

Hindustan Times  

New Delhi: The ministry of home affairs has granted foreign contribution regulation act licence to Olympic medalist and Rajya Sabha member MC Mary Kom’s non-government organisation, almost six years after it was probed for possible violation of the foreign funding law. Mary Kom’s NGO was probed for almost six years for possible violation of the foreign funding law. “FCRA licence has been granted to Mary Kom Regional Boxing Foundation for five years,” a senior official said, requesting anonymity. The Centre has tightened the FCRA since 2020 by making several amendments and even cancelling licences of various NGOs, including Rajiv Gandhi Foundation, Rajiv Gandhi Charitable Trust, and Centre for Policy Research, in the last few years accusing them of violating the law.
