In a recent affidavit to the Supreme Court, the Income Tax Department disclosed a probe into NGO Environics Trust, alleging it receives foreign funding to obstruct Indian public projects. The department claims the Trust's activities deviate from its stated objectives, with over 90% of its income sourced from abroad. The affidavit suggests a concerted effort by foreign entities to hinder Indian development projects. The Trust's appeal against a Delhi High Court order faces scrutiny by the Supreme Court bench of Justices Sanjiv Khanna and Dipankar Datta.
