An extensive investigative series brought to light by Fox News has laid bare a sprawling global operation. According to the findings, Neville Roy Singham, widely described as an operative aligned with the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), has channeled an astonishing $600 million into a sophisticated network spanning five continents. This massive financial undertaking was designed to establish a pro-China information ecosystem while simultaneously funding multiple organizations actively engaged in anti-India initiatives.

This transnational syndicate, frequently referred to in intelligence and media circles as the "House of Singham", functions as a highly calculated engine for "information laundering" or "narrative laundering". The strategy is remarkably straightforward yet deeply deceptive: the network identifies specific, sensitive social issues and converts grassroots activism into highly polished, strategically designed propaganda. This material is then heavily amplified by various Singham-funded entities to generate social friction and discord within major democratic nations, notably the United States and India. Ultimately, the broader goal is to meticulously scrub the global reputation of Communist China, painting the authoritarian state as a 'benevolent' global power acting as a necessary counterweight to Western 'imperialism' and 'fascism'.

Helmed by Neville Roy Singham, this vast pro-China machinery incorporates a diverse array of nonprofit organizations, activist coalitions, media platforms, and academic think tanks. Operating effectively as the public relations and propaganda arm of the CCP, several of these well-funded institutions have made it their primary objective to consistently disseminate narratives that heavily favor Beijing while aggressively targeting India's global and domestic standing.

TriContinental Institute: Bankrolled by Neville Roy Singham to Deliver Communist Party Propaganda

One of the central pillars of this operation is TriContinental, a Marxist think tank based in Massachusetts. Founded by the self-described 'journalist' Vijay Prashad, this nonprofit organization has been identified as a significant recipient of Singham’s financial backing and a primary amplifier for Chinese state talking points. Singham himself sits on the international advisory board of TriContinental, which stands accused of weaponizing American nonprofit tax structures to finance global propaganda. Further cementing these ties, Singham serves as the editor for Left Word Books and holds the title of Chief Correspondent at Globetrotter.

Through a steady stream of newsletters and lengthy articles, TriContinental has worked relentlessly to advance pro-China viewpoints while attacking Indian interests. A glaring example occurred amid the heightened military tensions between Iran and the joint US-Israel defensive front. The think tank published a piece directly attacking the Modi administration’s foreign policy. The article, written by economist Bodapati Srujana, focused on the sinking of the Iranian warship IRIS Dena in the Indian Ocean, framing India's diplomatic response as a 'self-inflicted humiliation'. The author also used the piece to loudly condemn Prime Minister Modi’s diplomatic visit to Israel.

TriContinental’s coverage of the IRIS Dena incident was heavily distorted, presenting the ship’s sinking as a catastrophic 'failure' on India’s part to protect an Iranian frigate that had previously participated in India’s MILAN 2026 naval exercises. However, the facts on the ground tell a very different story. The vessel was operating roughly 20 nautical miles west of Galle—well within the Search and Rescue (SAR) region overseen by Sri Lanka, and entirely outside of India’s sovereign territorial waters. Furthermore, India had extended the offer of safe sanctuary to the IRIS Dena just 3 days prior to it being struck by a US submarine torpedo. The basic protocols of international maritime law dictate that participating in a host nation's naval exercise does not legally or practically obligate the host's navy to provide a military escort back to the vessel's home port. India's mandate in that specific scenario was strictly humanitarian, involving standard search and rescue operations that the Indian Navy was already executing.

This pattern of narrative manipulation is consistent. Last year, TriContinental published an extensive commentary on India's economic maneuvering after US President Donald Trump initiated a global tariff war. Inexplicably, the leftist publication shoehorned China into the analysis, pivoting away from India to heap praise upon the Chinese economic model.

A simple review of the organization’s digital footprint reveals a website saturated with articles that romanticize the history of the Chinese Communist Party and exaggerate the nation's technological leaps. The overarching editorial goal is to craft an illusion that life under China's Communist regime is a flawless utopia that other developing nations must seek to replicate.

The historical foundation for this think tank is the January 1966 Tricontinental Conference held in Cuba, a gathering recognized for giving birth to the concept of national liberation Marxism. Today, utilizing Karl Marx and his writings as its foundational inspiration, TriContinental maintains an inter-regional headquarters alongside dedicated operational offices in Argentina, Brazil, India, and South Africa. The financial scale of the operation is notable: in 2024, the organization, with Vijay Prashad acting as its treasurer, reported total revenues of $857,945 against staggering operational expenses of approximately $3,745,069.

People’s Dispatch: Another Pro-China Outlet Pushing Aggressive Anti-India Narratives

Singham’s multi-million-dollar war chest has also deeply subsidized People's Dispatch, another media portal dedicated to anti-India and pro-China messaging, where Vijay Prashad is a frequent and prominent contributor. People’s Dispatch markets itself to readers as an "international media project with the mission of bringing to the world voices from people’s movements and organisations across the globe." However, its editorial choices reveal a clear bias. In an article dated January 2020, Prashad openly sympathized with the controversial protests at Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU), utilizing the platform to launch a bitter tirade against the Modi administration.

The outlet's hostility toward Indian foreign policy was further highlighted in June 2025. People’s Dispatch released a scathing article labeling India’s diplomatic stance as "shameful" after New Delhi chose to abstain from a UN resolution proposed by Spain demanding an immediate ceasefire in Gaza. The authors, Marxist commentators Dr. Josephine Varghese and Varkey Parakkal, aggressively theorized that India’s nuanced policy regarding Israel and Palestine was the direct result of a sinister "Hindutva-Zionist" alliance.

Beyond ideological grandstanding, People’s Dispatch has a documented history of disseminating fabricated information. In February of this year, the Marxist publication ran a highly sensationalized headline declaring: "300 million on the streets in a historic national strike in India". The piece claimed an astronomical number of citizens were actively protesting against new labor codes and a pending US-India trade agreement.

While localized agitations did occur, the bold assertion of "300 million" active participants was a gross exaggeration, subsequently parroted by various left-liberal networks, including other media properties funded under the Singham umbrella. Such vastly inflated figures are a common tactic deployed by anarchist factions, ideological newsletters, and political opportunists seeking to artificially manufacture a sense of impending national collapse. To put this in perspective, India boasts a population exceeding 1.4 billion. In a nation of such immense scale, substantial crowds can mobilize without bringing the entire country to a standstill. Attempting to brand every isolated protest as "unprecedented" or as undeniable evidence of a failing state is intentionally misleading. The reality on the ground was that, despite scattered demonstrations, normal life was largely unaffected across all states.

Furthermore, the publication has frequently exhibited a palpable animosity toward the Hindu community. The outlet routinely lionizes and expresses deep sympathy for radical leftist figures such as Narendra Dabholkar, Gauri Lankesh, Govind Pansare, and M.M. Kalburgi, framing their ideologies in an exclusively heroic light.

Simultaneously, People’s Dispatch and Vijay Prashad have actively campaigned to trigger international outrage against India regarding its bilateral defense agreements with Israel. The portal routinely casts Israel in the role of a genocidaire, while notably failing to condemn the horrific October 7 massacre perpetrated by Hamas. In this context, they have actively targeted Indian corporate ventures—such as the Adani-Elbit drone manufacturing facility in Hyderabad, Tata’s involvement in Project Nimbus, and Reliance Jio’s strategic partnerships in Israel—framing these legitimate business operations as direct 'complicity' by Indian enterprises in the 'genocide' of the Palestinian people.

This specific narrative, co-authored by Vijay Prashad and Sudhanva Deshpande, promoted outright falsehoods concerning the Adani-Elbit joint venture. While it is a documented fact that the Israeli military deployed Hermes 900 drones during its tactical operations in Gaza, there exists zero verifiable evidence that India has exported domestically manufactured Hermes 900 drones, or any form of 'missiles', to Israel for offensive use against Iran. The assertion that the Hyderabad facility is actively supplying weaponry for an Israeli campaign against Iran is pure, unfiltered propaganda.

Operating from a familiar Islamo-leftist playbook, People’s Dispatch also aggressively reframed the tragic 2020 Delhi Riots. The portal continuously portrays the events as unilateral 'Hindutva' violence directed at supposedly oppressed and suppressed Muslim 'minorities'. Investigative records and court findings, however, point toward a deeply premeditated Islamist conspiracy targeting the Hindu population. The publication deliberately paints radical figures—such as Umar Khalid, Khalid Saifi, Sharjeel Imam, and Gulfisha Fatima, who face serious charges for orchestrating the violence under the guise of anti-CAA protests—as innocent 'victims' of a fascist state.

In a recent editorial, the publication bitterly complained about the prolonged incarceration of Umar Khalid, the alleged primary architect of the riots, squarely blaming the judicial system for an unreasonable "delay" in his bail proceedings.

However, the reality completely dismantles this carefully constructed victimhood narrative. The extended jail time Khalid is facing is largely a product of his own legal strategy. Detailed analysis of court records by OpIndia revealed that out of 14 scheduled adjournments across 2023 and 2024, a staggering 7 delays were specifically requested by Umar Khalid’s own legal defense. The eventual withdrawal of his plea was not due to systemic delays or institutional bias. While the wider Islamo-leftist media ecosystem loudly decries this as a grave 'injustice', the accused remains behind bars primarily due to what appears to be failed forum-shopping tactics employed by his lawyers.

This specific analysis was recently validated by none other than former Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud. He observed that a significant issue within the legal system is the persistent mindset of certain political factions and legal teams who attempt to maneuver their cases before specific, preferred judges. Corroborating the earlier investigative reports, the former CJI pointed out that official court dockets confirm Khalid’s defense team, spearheaded by Kapil Sibal, deliberately sought at least seven adjournments before abruptly withdrawing their bail application in February 2024, ambiguously citing "a change in circumstances."NewsClick Portal: Singham-Financed Media Group Investigated For Pro-China Disinformation

Another major focal point of this financial web is NewsClick, a New Delhi-based digital outlet that received a massive $10.5 million cash injection from Singham’s Justice and Education Fund. Unsurprisingly, Vijay Prashad’s byline is frequently found on the portal’s propaganda pieces. The connections run deep into the Indian political establishment: Prashad is the nephew of prominent CPI(M) leader Brinda Karat, whose husband, senior CPI(M) official Prakash Karat, was found to have direct email correspondence with Neville Roy Singham, further exposing the intimate political ties at the heart of the NewsClick funding scandal.

NewsClick initially drew intense public and regulatory scrutiny in 2021 when the Enforcement Directorate (ED) launched a probe into the platform. Authorities alleged the portal had fraudulently accepted foreign remittances totaling approximately Rs. 38 crores. When The New York Times published a bombshell 2023 investigative report detailing Singham’s covert funding network and its explicit mission to spread Chinese propaganda, Vijay Prashad quickly dismissed the meticulously researched expose as a modern iteration of "McCarthyism".

Prashad’s influence extends to the Progressive International, a global coalition designed to synchronize leftist activism across borders. As an active council member, he oversees an organization that frequently churns out hit pieces aimed at destabilizing the Modi government by aggressively promoting an insidious narrative of Muslim victimhood. The platform routinely features anti-India and anti-Hindu content penned by controversial figures, including noted terrorism apologist Harsh Mander. The council’s roster is a who's-who of international left-wing agitators, including Indian economist Jayati Ghosh and former British Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn.

The Progressive International also shares a crucial operational link with the Tides Foundation. The international group counts the Arab Resource and Organising Centre—a vocal pro-Hamas organization heavily sponsored by Tides—among its core members. This brings the funding circle back to India, as the Tides Foundation is intrinsically connected to the Singham-funded NewsClick apparatus.

The Tides Foundation has a well-documented history of bankrolling organizations deeply hostile to India and the Hindu diaspora. Notably, they provided grant money to Hindus for Human Rights (HfHR), a controversial entity established in 2019 by two radical advocacy factions: the Indian American Muslim Council (IAMC) and the Organisation for Minorities of India (OFMI), both of which have reported ties to Islamist and Khalistani separatist networks. Furthermore, Tides directed funds toward the AMAN Public Charitable Trust. This trust is directly implicated in the broader NewsClick-China financial scandal, currently under investigation for allegedly accepting Chinese capital to subvert Indian national sovereignty.

When Neville Roy Singham introduced his inner circle of Indian operatives to his broader global team—individuals collaborating with TriContinental to push Beijing's talking points, as noted by the NYT—the list prominently featured Prabir Purkayastha, Srujana, Prasanth, and Vijay Prashad.

Prashad also maintains a close alliance with 'Urban Naxal' journalist P Sainath. Following the public revelation of Singham’s deep ties to the CCP's propaganda division, Sainath’s digital portal, PARI, hurriedly scrubbed all references to Singham from its archives.

NewsClick’s editorial bias against the Hindu majority is a matter of public record, but it is their alleged subservience to the CCP that has triggered state action. The 2023 New York Times investigation meticulously mapped this opaque ecosystem of shell companies, activist hubs, and nonprofits, all orbiting around Singham and servicing Chinese state interests. Following these revelations, a 2024 chargesheet filed by the Delhi Police explicitly labeled the Chinese state as the "ultimate paymaster" in this operation. The authorities charge that these illicit funds were specifically routed to artificially amplify anti-India narratives, particularly focusing on inciting unrest around the Kashmir issue and the national farmers' protests. The legal proceedings regarding these severe allegations remain ongoing in court.

It is worth noting that back in 2021, a comprehensive investigation by OpIndia had already exposed NewsClick's shadowy connections. That report revealed how the portal served as a nexus for various individuals dedicated to fracturing the Indian state, ranging from known Urban Naxals to highly polarizing activists like Teesta Setalvad and Abhisar Sharma.

People’s Forum: Driving Separatism in Kashmir, Anti-Hindu Sentiments, and Kerala’s Communist Myth

The scope of this network's financial maneuverings is vast. A detailed analysis by Fox News of publicly accessible financial records traced the flow of capital within the House of Singham, highlighting one specific entity: the People’s Forum, which received a staggering $22.4 million directly from Neville Roy Singham.

The mechanism was complex. Utilizing three primary conduits—the GS Donors Advised Philanthropy Fund for Wealth Management Inc., alongside two confirmed shell companies—Singham reportedly injected a breathtaking $278 million across six separate nonprofits. The People’s Forum emerged as a vital node in this network. Like other Singham-funded propaganda mills, the Forum has been a primary catalyst for the aggressive anti-Israel demonstrations that have swept the US since October 2023. Further financial support came from CodePink, whose co-founder, Jodie Evans—who also happens to be Singham’s wife—funneled an additional $20.4 million into the organization between 2017 and 2022. But the People’s Forum does not limit its disruptive activities to American soil; it has been actively engineering anti-India campaigns since 2019.

Operating under the guise of intellectual discourse, 'The People’s Forum' has systematically organized a series of seminars, film screenings, and 'teach-in' sessions deliberately crafted to feed a highly distorted and legally inaccurate narrative regarding Jammu and Kashmir to an international audience.

Dropping all pretense of journalistic neutrality, this pro-China front has explicitly advocated for the violent secession of Jammu and Kashmir from the Indian Union, openly aligning itself with radical extremist factions by echoing their demands for 'Azadi.' During a comprehensive 1 hour 50 minutes long session held on March 18, 2019, the organization painted the Indian government as a brutal, military 'occupying' force. They brazenly refer to legally sovereign Indian territory as "Indian occupied", deliberately ignoring the geopolitical reality that the only genuinely, illegally occupied sector of the region is Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir (PoJK).

The group consistently offers its platform to rabid anti-India voices and individuals with known links to Pakistan’s ISI intelligence agency. A prominent example is Hafsa Kanjwal, an Assistant Professor at Lafayette College who gained notoriety for publishing an opinion piece in The Washington Post that shockingly downplayed the severity of the horrific Pulwama terror attack. Kanjwal, who maintains documented, close relationships with convicted ISI operative Ghulam Nabi Fai through her activist group 'Stand With Kashmir (SWK)', is a frequent and highly promoted guest at 'The People’s Forum' events.

On September 14, 2019, this Singham-financed entity orchestrated a specialized event titled 'Self-Determination and Solidarity in Kashmir.' Tellingly, the anti-India symposium was heavily sponsored by 'Codepink', the organization run by Singham’s wife, Jodie Evans.

The official program synopsis stripped away any ambiguity regarding their mission: "This teach-in is geared towards building solidarity between the Kashmiri and Palestinian anti-occupation movements. The instructors will give a history of the Kashmiri struggle for self-determination, provide an analysis of the Indian occupation of Kashmir, and reflect on the ties between India and Israel, as well as the need for greater mobilization between the Palestinian and Kashmiri solidarity movements" The relationship between Kanjwal and the organization continued into March 2023, when 'The People’s Forum' proudly hosted her to launch her deeply biased book, 'Hostile Homelands: The New Alliance between India and Israel.' Around the same period, the group actively marketed and screened a propagandist documentary focused on the Indian State of Jammu and Kashmir, ominously titled 'Out of Sight.' Beyond Kashmir, the organization sought to directly interfere in Indian democratic processes. In the tense lead-up to the crucial 2019 Lok Sabha elections, The People’s Forum hosted a highly publicized seminar featuring V Srinivasa Rao, a senior leader of the Communist Party-affiliated Student Federation of India (SFI). The event, explicitly titled 'Make the land proud: India’s Peasant Struggles and the 2019 Election', was a calculated attempt to weaponize alleged agrarian distress, aiming to sway public opinion and directly impact the national electoral outcome against the Modi government.

The published description for the seminar laid bare their deeply partisan, anti-state agenda: "Earlier this year (2019) more than 160 million peasants and workers went on strike in India. In the last few years, India has seen an upsurge of peasant struggles across the country as the Indian politics have moved to the far right under Modi’s rule. This has been one of the largest general strikes in the world. The workers, exhausted by almost three decades of neoliberal policies and by the attack on their rights, came onto the streets to make their case for better livelihoods and workplace democracy. Because of India’s government policies, agrarian distress is acute: An average of 12,000 farmers committed suicide every year of this government’s rule.“ Staying true to its ideological roots, this Singham-funded, pro-CCP operation has also dedicated significant resources to amplifying the much-debated 'Kerala Model' of governance. During a heavily promoted virtual event in April 2020, at the height of global uncertainty, The People’s Forum confidently proclaimed: "While Indian PM Modi follows the example of fellow neoliberal strongmen around the world, and fails to protect lives from this pandemic while downplaying the crisis, Kerala offers a different example. The state of Kerala, led by a coalition of leftist and communist parties, has set the standard in successful testing, containment, and socialized care for the well-being of its people. How has this been achieved in Kerala, and what can we learn from this experience? Join researcher Subin Dennis and journalist Prasanth R for the discussion.“ Their ideological attacks frequently target the cultural foundation of India. In October 2019, the organization convened a seminar ostensibly focused on Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi. In practice, however, the event was utilized as a platform to launch a sweeping attack on the Hindu faith under the convenient rhetorical guise of critiquing 'Hindutva'.

The official synopsis for the event read: "Gandhi, a practicing Hindu, also believed in love as a fundamental human emotion and practice and he was able to weave this love of everyone and all creation into all his beliefs, principles and practices. Gandhi’s Hinduism was not exclusive and excluding and did not identify an ‘other’. It is important to differentiate Gandhi’s Hinduism from today’s Hindutva.“ This linguistic maneuvering has become the standard operational tactic for the global Islamo-leftist alliance: utilizing the term 'Hindutva' as a politically acceptable proxy to launch vitriolic attacks against the broader practices and practitioners of Hinduism. Revealingly, this specific anti-Hindu event was co-sponsored by Hindus for Human Rights (HfHR).

HfHR is an organization with a deeply troubling track record. They were highly visible endorsers of the notoriously Hinduphobic academic conference titled 'Dismantling Global Hindutva'. According to the open-source intelligence collective 'Disinfo Lab', HfHR was officially incorporated in 2019 through the joint efforts of the Indian American Muslim Council (IAMC) and the Organisation for Minorities of India (OFMI).

Sunita Vishwanath, the prominent co-founder of HfHR, has actively engaged in spreading extreme misinformation. In 2019, she spearheaded a campaign designed to intentionally incite panic and hysteria among India’s Muslim population regarding the proposed National Register of Citizens (NRC).

Operating at the peak of this manufactured crisis, Vishwanath claimed: "We are especially appalled by the most recent nightmare of the Kashmiri people, and the situation of 1.9 million people in India who are rendered stateless due to the imposition of the travesty called the National Register of Citizens,"

Vishwanath’s influence extends further; she is also the co-founder of 'Women for Afghan Women', an NGO heavily subsidized by controversial billionaire George Soros’s Open Society Foundations (OSF) and the Open Society Institute (OSI). Soros's OSF, which initiated its Indian operations back in 1999 by utilizing educational scholarships and academic fellowships to embed itself within Indian institutions, has a long and documented history of financing entities that actively work to create civil disorder within India. By funneling capital to anti-state elements, Soros-linked organizations systematically attempt to fracture Indian democracy, ironically acting entirely under the rhetorical banner of 'strengthening' it. In a telling move, the X (formerly Twitter) account of Vishwanath's HfHr was legally withheld in India in October 2023.

Her political positioning is clear. In 2023, Vishwanath was front and center at an event held at the National Press Club at Stanford University, sharing the room with senior Indian Congress leader Rahul Gandhi.

Furthermore, Vishwanath threw her considerable organizational weight behind Zohran Mamdani during his campaign for New York City mayor. Mamdani, a self-identified Democrat Socialist, has built a reputation as a serial fabricator and a virulent Hinduphobe. A politician who once publicly derided Hindus using the deeply offensive slur 'Harami', Mamdani has aggressively peddled easily disprovable lies regarding the 2002 Gujarat Riots, falsely claiming there is an ongoing, systematic erasure of the Muslim population in Gujarat. For these efforts, he was handsomely rewarded with robust financial backing and fierce propaganda support from established anti-India Islamist outfits such as CAIR and the IAMC.

The financial threads connecting these anti-India political movements inevitably lead back to the Singham family. Shanti Singham, the biological sister of Neville Roy Singham, is deeply embedded in this ecosystem. In June 2025, she made targeted financial contributions totaling roughly $1,000 to a Parliamentary Action Committee (PAC) known as 'New Yorkers for Lower Cost', which directly bankrolled the electoral ambitions of Zohran Mamdani. Her husband, Daniel Goodwin—who formerly held a lucrative executive position at Thoughtworks, the global software firm founded and owned by Neville Roy Singham—contributed an additional $3,500 to the same cause.

Shanti Marie Singham is not merely a passive donor; she occupies a highly influential academic position at the CCP-affiliated East China Normal University located in Shanghai. Intelligence reports indicate she thoroughly shares her brother’s radical political ideology and serves as a vital operational node in advancing his global objectives.

When you step back and view the entirety of the evidence, what Neville Roy Singham has meticulously constructed—with the undisputed financial and strategic backing of the Chinese Communist Party—is not a benevolent philanthropic foundation or a grassroots activist network. It is, in fact, a highly disciplined, Marxist-Maoist transnational apparatus. It was specifically designed from the ground up to ruthlessly weaponize social grievances, exploit loopholes in international nonprofit laws, manipulate digital media algorithms, and leverage every available financial resource to destabilize rival sovereign states. Its ultimate goal is to hijack domestic policy decisions and secure an unassailable geopolitical advantage for Beijing. This represents the absolute pinnacle of modern, asymmetrical subversion. Driven by an endless supply of dark money and a ruthless ideological commitment, it is a subtle, brilliantly sophisticated, and terrifyingly effective strategy designed to ensure that the targeted enemy state is slowly, quietly eaten away from the inside out by termites carefully cultivated by the CCP.
