Only last year, in May 2015, the Bill Gates Foundation was being investigated for discrepancies between its accounts and those of the Public Health Foundation of India (in Ahmedabad in Gujarat), a prominent institution in India.

This was part of the Indian government’s decision to put under the scanner a number of subversive NGOs, from the Ford Foundation to Greenpeace.

A little over a year, and the Gates Foundation now has its representative on the RBI board, giving the run around to senior board members and hurrying through an unprecedented cash ban on a scale that is gigantic.

What a transformation.

And what could have led to it?
