India Inc donations via electoral trusts surged after bonds nixed
Saturday, 18 January 2025 Prudent Electoral Trust saw corporate donations surge to Rs 1,075.7 crore in 2023-24, tripling from the previous year after the Supreme Court scrapped the electoral bonds scheme. Major donors included Arcelor, DLF, and Maruti Suzuki. BJP received Rs 723.8 crore, followed by Congress with Rs 156.4 crore. Triumph Electoral Trust and others also saw significant contributions.
The U.S. Supreme Court has temporarily blocked the Trump administration’s attempt to fire whistleblower chief Hampton Dellinger. The Biden appointee will remain in his post at least until Feb. 26 as legal proceedings continue. Liberal justices opposed the firing, while conservative justices dissented, arguing the court overstepped. This marks the first Supreme Court challenge to Trump’s removals.
