Queries: Lokpal and Lokayukts Act 2013

Dear Sir,

Lokpal and Lokayukts Act, 2013 applicable to NGO from 20th June 2016.  We need your help on following points.  You are requested to give your suggestion so that it helps us to follow this act.

  1. Definition of Public Servant as per Act.  Can all the members of the Board of Trustee became a public servant?.
  2. In our case we think that our Two Directors and CEO are likely to be covered by the Act as they are the making the day to day decisions of the affairs of the Trust.
  3. Act is applicable to those NGO who receive grant/donation from central government directly for more than rupees One Crore OR more than Rs. 10/-lacs from foreign sources.   Our trust is not receiving the funds directly from central government but from different departments of the state governments for more than Rs1/-crore.
  4. Our Trust is receiving foreign fund directly from foreign country and also though its branched in India.
  5. The applicability is,  If  both the  above conditions ( i.e Point -3 & Point-4)  is not fulfil in particular year whether our trust is cover under this act or not?
  6. Office bearers of the trust have to file annual return of assets and liabilities by 31st July every year.  Our point is to whom or to which authority the return is to be filled?  Whether return is to be filled online or off line?
  7. The Trust has to file original declaration or annual return may be filled before the Ministry or Department making the highest contribution as financial assistant  and a copy of the return may be sent to all other Ministry or Departments.   Our point is For FCRA fund there is no issue but if we received fund from Ministry under which format we have to file annual return/declaration.

Under the above act, the NGO/Organisation is also covered for the filing the annual return means over and their office barriers?

Your advice will be of great help to us.

With Regards
