I have been working with Reputed NGOs since 1980 after getting higher education in Lokbharti.For make corruptions zero all the NGOs and Government it self, subsidies and free should be stopped totally but for any type of know how, training and education for awareness should be free of cost.

It's amazing how mushrooming of NGOs in India have occured in last 2-3 decades.Not surprisingly corruptions have siphoned off major chunks of fund received by them paricularly by way of foreign donations.India ranks very very high in corruption index.

One more area of corruption and quick unethical money making!!!!!!!! Is it in our gene or what??

It was a well thought out article reflecting the maladies that have engulfedthis sector. The voluntary aspect has gone away from the sector long back and it is now only influential people entering intot he sector with a chance of quick buks.

Even the NGO entrepreneurs happens to be Indians in India. Doesn't matter whatever the design, purpose and matrix might be - the corruption element in our social fabric is so imbibed and integral, end of the day it becomes a honey hive. Bigger the hive more the bees!

NGO funding need to be based on certificate from the previous agency from which funds have been obtained as having been utilized in an optimum manner. Annual audit therefore is a must.

The article raises critical issues regarding NGOs. It focuses on credibility and transparency issues which are most important for the survival of NGOs.. it ignores the role and work of Foundations which are governed differently and would have answered some of the questions raised.

without proper financial audit, no one can control the money spilling out from government pocket and going to some smart people.
Jayant KumarSep 18th, 2010 at 11:47 AM
my initial is that this is very misleading and incorrect preasentation.
i shall give a detailed feedback shortly
