Dear Doctor

The Office Memo you have cited is not applicable for your case, and
deals with non-credit of Indian currency into FC accounts by a few
misinformed Banks.

The FCRA is a specialised legislation administered by the Union Home
Ministry to control /monitor the inflow of foreign terror funds
channelled via NGOs. It is possible that your NGO( MSF?) is on the
watch list for certain actions involving violation of Foreigners Line
in the North East - Manipur / Mizoram - and involvement in a
bio-piracy network there.
