Mata Amritanandamayi is always looking forward to help in any way. In a great action of compassion she has decided to give several millions of dollars to the Indian governement. What for?

We keep on saying that Amma is just a puppet handled by vested interests. She is not educated, she doesn't speak any foreign language so it must be very easy to fool her. You can check for yourself.
