Original Note:

UK is still funding NGOs under guise of investment. https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/world/uk/uk-still-gives-aid-to-india-dressed-up-as-business-investments-rather-than-direct-handouts-britain-watchdog/articleshow/98641083.cms https://www.opindia.com/2023/07/british-politician-claims-uk-is-giving-foreign-aid-to-india-how-it-is-a-big-lie/ https://lifemathmoney.com/the-truth-about-uk-foreign-aid-to-india/
