@RanaAyyub campaign has raised approx Rs.90L (Goal=1.25Cr) through Ketto in the name of helping COVID affected migrants & slum dwellers in Mumbai. To my surprised, there is NO registered NGO associated here, i.e. all on a PERSONAL account.

This can be further verified by receipt too which clearly says FUND TYPE=PERSONAL & the donation is NOT eligible for tax exemption(80G).
In this crisis, a donation is a noble cause but how come NO accountability or records of such huge fundraising?

Instead of getting associated with a legit NGO (easy opt) or get one reg. for self, its shocking that the ppl who were questioning transparency at PM level fund, are opting for 'PERSONAL' collection!!!
@NITIAayog @IncomeTaxIndia @dir_ed any legal tab to ensure transparency?

++ As per FCRA, a journalist can't collect foreign funding in India! How is this happening here then? How can one ensure its not money laundering/ hawala/ sources of the donor (when there is an option to remain 'anonymous'!)
@ketto care to clarify this?

E-mail communication from Ketto to all donors confirming Law Enforcement Agencies are scrutinizing all three fundraisings of Rana Ayyub. 46% of funds not utilized what it was meant and Rs. 90L tax liabilities.

Though FIR mentions about FCRA violation, my best assumption is Sections related to money laundering would be added at later stage of on-going investigation.
Cheers to team, for taking it to legal and logical scrutiny.

Ayyub penned an article in WaPo on 22Sep21, came up with a filmy alibi of a whopping donation of $130,000 to a hospital in Delhi thru check but it returned citing the "govt pressure".

Since it is US publc, so might have mentioned amount in USD (with exact figure), though the check given in DLH (must be in INR! i.e. ~Rs95L). No. The thread would never make such a lame point. Because the next calculation is spicier.

Considering all figures from Ketto cpmgn, Ketto email, Ayyub's own update & article & best assumption the leftover amount is/was Rs30L. In what possibility the said journo can write a check of Rs95L? When it was given? To which hospital? Why didn't make hue & cry (as usual)

when the hospital returned the check due to "govt pressure"? This would have been a reason for writing 10 articles+5 vids+3 interview! Why was critical step that 66% of the funds is being diverted to a hospital was EVER mentioned in ANY of Ketto campaign update while even ..

Ayyub quoted Sonu Sood, Mander, DB & all in the article, but didn't learn anything. For that matter, Sood, despite having 20x heavy charges, behaving like a pro & not getting nervous. A consultation

with an expert would have been better before planning such an alibi. It will dig the hole even deeper.
