Breaking: India Raids Soros-Backed Offices Linked to the Open Society Foundations in Karnataka
The Indian government raided George Soros-backed offices in Bengaluru on Tuesday.
The Enforcement Directorate raided eight Soros-backed offices linked to the Open Society Foundations (OSF), an organization backed by US billionaire George Soros, along with some linked entities in Bengaluru.
This action stems from allegations of violations under the Foreign Exchange Management Act (FEMA), highlighting the government’s commitment to curbing foreign interference in domestic affairs.
Investigations revealed that between 2020-21 and 2023-24, approximately ₹25 crore (2.9 million) was funneled from Soros’ organizations to various Indian NGOs through complex financial arrangements.
