The Centre on Wednesday warned of action against non-governmental organisations (NGOs) spending foreign contributions in unauthenticated activities like religious conversion.
?This is not an issue of communal conversion. But, we go according to FCRA (Foreign Contribution Regulation Act) rules, which NGOs need to abide by. If there are violations, there has to be action. Our purpose is to ensure that money of NGOs should be spent for purposes mentioned by them," Minister of State for Home Kiren Rijiju told reporters in Delhi.

According to reports the Home Ministry is verifying the accounts of some NGOs which were allegedly indulging in unauthenticated activities like religious conversion.
