The Tamil Nadu Assembly on Tuesday passed a resolution opposing the FCRA Amendment Bill, 2026, in its present form.

The resolution said the amendment may adversely affect the autonomy of charitable organisations and, in particular, the functioning of educational and social welfare institutions run by minorities and urged the Centre to withdraw the bill.

After discussions and a subsequent voice vote, Speaker J C D Prabhakar announced that the resolution piloted by School Education Minister A Rajmohan was passed.
