#3 falsification of data,

Gee whiz, if that's a "shutter the doors" offence then there shouldn't be a single NGO operating anywhere.

#5 The Indians don't call it the "Licensing Raj" for nothing. Their plethora of civil servants an agencies are poorly financed and before you do anything you must get a license to do it. That requires a trip of at least 3 levels per agency and more than one agency. If you are polite, soft spoke, patient, and form "relationships," the process for opening a coal mine is quicker and cheaper than building a duck pond in California.
"Now you have to go to Parks and Wildlife to get certification that your ducks are domestic and not wild." I snark but not by much.
