"MHA did not freeze any accounts of MoC. State Bank of India has informed that MoC itself sent a request to SBI to freeze its accounts," read an excerpt from a press note released by the government. 

As per a press note from the Indian government, the organisation's renewal application under the Foreign Contribution Regulation Act (FCRA) was refused on December 25 for not meeting the eligibility conditions under FCRA 2010 and Foreign Contribution Regulation Rules 2011. "No request/revision application has been received from Missionaries of Charity (MoC) for review of this refusal of renewal," the PIB statement added. 

The statement also said that some adverse inputs were noticed while considering the MoC's renewal application. "In consideration of these inputs on record, the renewal application of MoC was not approved. The FCRA registration of MoC was valid up to 31st December 2021," it said.
