India grants foreign funding license to Bageshwar Dham

India's Ministry of Home Affairs has granted registration under the Foreign Contribution (Regulation) Act (FCRA) to the Bageshwar Dham Jan Seva Samiti, a religious body based in Chhatarpur, Madhya Pradesh. The organization is led by Dhirendra Krishna Shastri, a popular religious figure who promotes Sanatan Dharma. This registration legally permits the group to receive and utilize foreign donations for its activities. The move highlights the ongoing regulatory oversight of foreign funding for religious and non-governmental organizations in India.
