Being an NDA partner, they should have exerted pressure on the central government to stop the passage of the bill, but they have failed to do so. “We urge all citizens, church leaders, students, traditional institutions, women, youth and well-wishers to participate in the peaceful march against the proposed FCRA Amendment Bill 2026,” Badwar said. The rally will begin from the Fire Brigade Ground and culminate at Don Bosco Square, where Congress leaders are expected to address the gathering. Badwar claimed the Bill, if enacted, would pose a serious threat to institutions that have historically contributed to the state’s education, healthcare and social welfare sectors. The proposed Bill, introduced in the Lok Sabha on March 25, is expected to be taken up for discussion during the ongoing Monsoon Session next week.
