The Union government has granted a Foreign Contribution Regulation Act (FCRA) licence to Sri Harmandir Sahib at Amritsar in Punjab for five years.
The Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) granted the licence after the Golden Temple management applied for FCRA registration on May 27, 2020.
At the Golden
Temple, the management aims to run a free community kitchen, give financial
assistance to the poor and needy, including children. So far, the management
under the aegis of the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee has been able to
fulfill these objectives through domestic donations. Now, it will also be able
to receive foreign contributions to meet expenses on these noble endeavors.
The Golden
Temple is not only one of the main religious places of the Sikhs, but also a
symbol of human brotherhood and equality. Everyone, irrespective of caste,
creed, or race can seek spiritual solace and religious fulfillment without any
hindrance at the holy place.
