No Wikimedia Foundation Grants like Rapid Grant, Project Grant etc have been applied & by following with the real Wikimedia Culture, all Wikimedia India members in their individual capacity have taken to finance India Chapter Activities for Capacity Developments, Awareness, Partnerships, etc.
As you all are aware, Wikimedia India continues to undergo a financial crisis because it cannot receive any funding [1] from its primary donor Wikimedia Foundation(USA). However, Wikimedia India continues to do whatever it can, with its current constraints, to take the Wikimedia movement forward in India.
Wikimedia India looks forward to the community review on its activities hosted and more importantly on expectations from the larger community, and suggestions on how they want Wikimedia India to perform this financial year, holding that funding's may remain frozen.
