Read Gujarat govt letter to Union Home Ministry on Teesta Setalvad’s NGO

Ahmedabad

The Gujarat government has sought a probe into the role of activist Teesta Setalvad’s NGO alleging that it misused funds received from a foreign donor to create ‘communal disharmony’. A letter to Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh has been sent seeking probe into the role of Setalvad’s NGO (Sabrang Trust) after it was found out that funds given to the NGO were misused.During the investigation of Gulberg Society museum funds embezzlement case, these things came to light.The funds which they received, especially from the (US-based) Ford Foundation, were actually used for disturbing the communal harmony here and carrying out anti-national propaganda against India in foreign countries. According to the information given by Ford Foundation (to state police), the government came to know that Teesta had used the funds to carry out a campaign against the Gujarat government and also against the country.Gujarat govt wrote to the government of India last month seeking probe of this NGO’s role and necessary action against it…they (the Centre) can take action such as cancelling its grants or de-listing the NGO.
