Overview

• A September 3 notice to RGF finance director Sandeep Anand seeks a year-wise account of foreign contributions since 1991, bank and authorised signatory details, auditor contacts, and a copy of the FCRA licence.
• The notice cites unproven claims of a 2011 donation from Zakir Naik, a $300,000 contribution from the Chinese government in 2005–06, and alleged transfers from the Ministry of Finance and the Prime Minister’s Relief Fund during the UPA era.
• RGF’s finance director has been summoned to appear in Jharsuguda on November 4, with non-compliance risking action under Section 210 of the BNSS; the notice was issued under Section 94.
• The financial scrutiny is part of a case registered on February 7 under BNSS Sections 152 and 197(1)(d) following Rahul Gandhi’s January 15 speech about institutional capture and fighting the Indian state.
• Inspector General Himanshu Lal said the information requested is relevant to the inquiry and indicated further details would follow after records are reviewed.
