Some sources suggest that the referenced grant is [0], as this is allegedly the only grant for $21 million by USAID that matches the description. It is for Bangladesh, not India, and the money appears to have gone to various pro-democracy advocacy groups. While I suppose you could argue about whether the US should “spread democracy” around the world, I don’t see that you can say this is fraud rather than merely government spending one disagrees with.
There was no “democracy” problem. Instead, it was US funding to destabilize a government that was seen as too friendly to Russia. It’s classic Deep State fraud. In this case, a fraud that will have resulted in setting economic development backward a decade in a country of 175 million people. Far more costly than even $8 billion in UHC fraud.
America’s only interest in that region is suppressing Islamists, which the previous government was doing a great job at. It’s doubtful that, if the government was being transparent, Americans would pay money to overthrow the government that was killing Islamist radicals without due process in favor of one that’s likely to be taken over by Islamists.
The only grant listed in this thread [1] is for "International development and humanitarian assistance" with a sub function of "Consortium For Elections & Political Process Strengthening".
There's no evidence shown that this grant money is being used to _overthrow_ a democratically elected government.
Also, given that the initially 21 Million claim isn't actually backed up by a specific grant. It's more likely just a fraudulent claim by Musk and you should stop listening to him. I mean it's really trivial to list the grant when you canceled it ...

You (and others) misunderstood the meaning of "aid" here. The "aid" is not for you or your country. The "aid" is to pursue US interests.
