# Congress vows to oppose FCRA Bill in Parliament 2026-08-09T13:31:25+00:00 | India | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet Congress general secretary K C Venugopal has said the party and other opposition groups will strongly resist the proposed Foreign Contribution (Regulation) Amendment Bill, 2026. Speaking in Alappuzha on Sunday, he called the legislation "unconstitutional and anti-people" and alleged it targets minorities and NGOs. Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge said the party's strategy would be discussed at a meeting of opposition floor leaders on Monday. The bill, expected in the final week of the Monsoon Session, seeks to tighten oversight of foreign-funded organisations. Venugopal also questioned the government over handling of student protests on the NEET paper leak and opposed the proposed delimitation bill, saying it would disadvantage states that had controlled population. Several opposition parties including DMK and NCP(SP) have expressed concerns. ## Coverage - timesofindia.indiatimes.com - indiatoday.in - economictimes.indiatimes.com - rediff.com Tags: Congress, Delimitation Bill, FCRA Amendment, KC Venugopal, NEET paper leak protests, Parliament monsoon session Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/congress-vows-to-oppose-fcra-amendment-bill-calls-it-anti-people/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
