DURING the Joe Biden administration, the United States committed over $20 million to promote democratic participation in India.

- JITENDRA CHOUBEY @ New Delhi

The American fund is close to the $21-million estimate of Elon Musk and the US foreign assistance data on promoting democratic participation and civil society in India.

In the 2024 election year, the US allocated $5.5 million toward voter turnout initiatives, and in 2023, $6.1 million was spent under the same head.

Over the past four years, the total commitment for democratic participation was $20.1 million, with $13.25 million disbursed (see table).
