The Solicitor General (SG) Tushar Mehta, arguing for the Centre, said that the right to receive foreign contributions is not a fundamental right. &#8220;The foreign contributions, if unregulated, can cause devastating consequences to the sovereignty of the nation. As a nation, we have been conscious of foreign contributions,&#8221; the SG Mehta told Supreme Court.<\/p>\n<p>He said that the regulation is with an object and has been clear from the introduction of the legislation. One of the petitions filed before the Supreme Court has sought a direction to the government not to grant any further extension to the NGOs to comply with specific provisions of the law including on opening of bank account at a specific branch of a nationalized bank.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fb-background-color\">\n\t\t\t  <div \n\t\t\t  \tclass = \"fb-comments\" \n\t\t\t  \tdata-href = \"https:\/\/www.hamslive.com\/news\/2021\/11\/sc-reserves-order-on-plea-challenging-amendment-in-fcra\/\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-numposts = \"10\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-lazy = \"true\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-colorscheme = \"light\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-order-by = \"social\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-mobile=true>\n\t\t\t  <\/div><\/div>\n\t\t  <style>\n\t\t    .fb-background-color {\n\t\t\t\tbackground: #ffffff !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t.fb_iframe_widget_fluid_desktop iframe {\n\t\t\t    width: 100% !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t  <\/style>\n\t\t  ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Supreme Court reserves order on plea challenging amendment in FCRA to regulate foreign funds.
