Why PM CARES took funds from China, asks Congress

New Delhi, June 28

After BJP's attack over donations the Chinese government and Embassy made to Sonia Gandhi-led Rajiv Gandhi Foundation in 2005, the Congress today asked the Centre why PM CARES accepted funds from Chinese companies, with the border standoff in Ladakh still raging.

Congress spokesperson Abhishek Singhvi alleged that Huawei donated Rs 7 crore, TikTok Rs 30 crore, Paytm Rs 100 crore, Xiaomi Rs 15 crore and Rs 1 crore to the PM CARES Fund which is neither subject to any audit nor to the RTI oversight. Singhvi asked whether or not Huawei had direct and deep links to the People's Liberation Army of China? He also asked has Paytm with 38 per cent Chinese ownership given Rs 100 crore and Xiaomi given committed Rs 15 crore to the Fund? — TNS
