Hi Dr. Nawab Hakim,
to clarify, the 2lakh that you are referring to was made as a grant to the
Centre for Internet and Society, an independent organisation working out of
Delhi.
The Wikimedia Chapter (India) is independent society registered in India,
under the Karnataka Societies Act. It is a Non-Profit entity comprising of
volunteers. We rely on donations to run the Chapter.
I hope this clears it out.
