Was there foreign interference in narrative-building in the 2024 elections, a globally significant event given India’s status as the world’s largest democracy and an emerging geopolitical power?

(snip) The Henry Luce Foundation’s (HLF) controversial funding activities in India, particularly in relation to the Indian General Elections of 2024 (pic below).

The Political Conflict, Gender, and People’s Rights Initiative (PCRes) is another front at the University of California, Berkeley, a significant recipient of Henry Luce Foundation funding. Originally known as the Armed Conflict Resolution and People’s Rights Project, PCRes was reestablished in its current form in2016. It has been involved in substantial research into the effects of violence on minority communities in regions across India and the political dynamics surrounding Kashmir. Founding Co-Chair Angana P. Chatterji, a central figure in the initiative, has been a vocal critic of India’s policies on Kashmir and other national issues. In April 2021, PCRes received a notable grant from the Henry Luce Foundation. PCRes continues to host events on pertinent issues affecting South Asia, including a recent focus on Hindu nationalism inthe context of the 2024 Indian elections. (/snip)

Despite continuous exposure, advocacy groups suchas Friends of Democracy persist in shaping narratives around Indian democracy with funding from the HLF, often aligning their agendas with George Soros. The chair of Friends of Democracy, Ricken Patel is a Canadian–British activist and,

He wason the board of directors of NAMATI, which George Soros is part of. Ricken Patel is one of the founding members of Respublica. He also cofounded Avaaz and served on its board until 2021. He servedon the advisory board of Access Now.

In March 2023, NAMATI funded ‘Friends of Democracy’ – ‘fight against the ruling party to save India’. Incidentally, another front Friends of Democracy PAC was co-founded by George Soros’ son Jonathan Soros.

Soros Nazi/Communist collaborator.

The only reason he's not outed is because he funds everybody, including Republicans.
