India have a strict process for sending and receiving money from outside as investment. Its mainly to avoid black money i guess.

Many countries have similar controls; they're often represented as being anti-money-laundering, and anti-terrorism, but they are also used to control capital outflows, and improve tax compliance. I have never seen any evidence that this sort of control actually works to prevent money laundering or terrorist financing, but it does seem to help governments reduce monetary outflows and audit for tax compliance (when they bother to actually read what they receive).

Given the impact of international terrorism and crime on India, minimising illicit money flow in and out of the country seems an inherently sensible precaution.

Sounds like its not the maintainers problem :/

I don’t think it’s fair to conflate the people of India with their government
