All religous orgs receive money from abroad

saffron orgs get the most funding from UAE & UK from the rich gujju businessmen there.

This report is just pointing a finger at Xian orgs. Totally biased.

As long as we are raking n the Moolah and the Rs is stable I have no problem converting to Islam as long as they pay market rate for souls(atmas). We need some kind of instrument like those used in the forex markets.to manage the harvest of atmas to the highest bidder. At this poijt Indians have a lot of fores reserves sitting idylly doing nothing cant we spread the message of the vedas and upanishads in the Gulf. Atleast those sick morons will learn the concept of options.

For once, i appreciate Rediff for publishing this article. The author has well presented it & the statistics prove beyond doubt that the funds received are for christian conversion activities in India. If left unchecked, this will explode into a serious issue later. Look at the north-east as an example

there was a porposal to introduce a bill to check the outflow of foreign money to India, which was opposed by the vested interests. Even minorities commission opposed any move to check their income as it adversely effects their conceit activities..and the Government is so protective towards the minorities that it always avoids any action that might rob of their vote banks.

For your kind information right wing Hindu outfits like VHP, RSS and Bajrang Dal also receive huge amounts of contributions from abroad and that is usually used for propagating their divisive philosophy instead of the welfare of the people. As far as the North-East is concerned please visit the place before making comments. The government has totally neglected the inaccessible hilly areas and it is thanks to several Christian and other NGO's that at least some development is taking place in the hilly areas.

Just as you think that all money received by Christian organisations is for conversion activities.

why encourage begging?
by Ajhay waghmare on May 17, 2011 02:51 PM

84K crore ?
that should've wiped of poverty already...
Charity doesn't reduce poverty it only encourages begging..
look around any such NGO...
Missionaries of Charity
Salvation Army
even small dargahs & masjids where poor people are fed
poverty is mostly seen in such area only...
inteasd I appreciate those institutions that enable education & relf dependency to the poor children
