Oxfam says its work in India is imperilled by ban on foreign funding

Government has banned Mother Teresa charity and many other NGOs from receiving donations from abroad

Oxfam India has said its work in the country will be imperilled by the government's refusal to renew a licence that permits it to receive funds from abroad.

Oxfam is on a list of thousands of NGOs, according to local media reports, whose licence has not been renewed. Without the licence, these organisations can only use donations and contributions from within India.
