- 06 Apr, 2023
Oxfam India is FULLY compliant with Indian laws and has filed all its statutory compliances, including Foreign Contribution Regulation Act (FCRA) returns, in a timely manner since its inception. Oxfam India has been cooperating with all government agencies since its FCRA registration wasn't renewed in December 2021.
We have filed a plea in the Delhi High Court against the decision to not renew our FCRA registration. The High Court has asked the Union government to respond to our plea.
In times of growing inequality and greater need for action on poverty eradication, Oxfam India has been and will continue to work in PUBLIC AND NATIONAL interest. Oxfam India believes this is our constitutional duty as an organisation, irrespective of obstacles and hurdles in the path

The system has been installed in areas where land lay bare due to lack of irrigation facilities.

Araskupa Processing Unit: A Blessing In Disguise
Through Project Utthan, an Oxfam India-HDFC Bank’s HRDP initiative, a 10-member SHG was provided two machines—a 2-in-1 pulveriser and a huller. The former, fitted with blades of different sizes, is for grinding wheat, turmeric, millets, cumins, chilies and other spices. The latter is the paddy processing unit. Though the huller processes about 1.5 quintals of paddy an hour but it has made paddy processing easily accessible to not just Araskupa but six other neighbouring villages (some of them with very remote homes and no access to electricity).
