Ford Foundation vacates Delhi office amid past government scrutiny over funding
- The Ford Foundation, a US-based philanthropic organisation that funds social and development projects, has vacated its Delhi office.
- The foundation left after its lease at Lodhi Estate expired, following nearly six decades at the property.
- The government began the eviction process in March, but officials said there was no forceful eviction as the foundation had already moved out.
- The foundation has faced government scrutiny over its funding of Indian organisations, including a 2015 watchlist that was lifted in 2016.
