We all know that all such easy money is misused by the people at the helm of affairs.This practice of funding must stop. They are the dens of corruption both from where it comes and to where it is received.

There are large number of such dens operating since independence . To name a few IRDA , AICTE ,MCI , UGC , TRAI , DCI and many more .

 Modi Government must close these dens of corruption.There should be nothing free.

Dear All
It is a common knowledge that NGOs misuse funds.
Foreign funds have to be used for specific purposes and a separate account has to be kept. But the same is manipulated. Local funding is also misappropriated. The Charity Commission takes years due to various reasons to correct violations and trustees make hay and make mockery of law.
It is common knowledge that. Culprits more than often go Scot free in this country due to our legal system.
God only is the last resort.
Let us change. Let us overhaul the system before it is too late.

Time has come to make the working of NGOs receiving foreign aids transparent. They have misused the foreign funding to destabilise the Govt. and should not go scot free. Time has come to make them answerable for their misdeed to the public ban their furtherance in the field.

Dear Mr. Venkataraman
 
The time has certainly come to closely monitor the activiries of N.GOs
Mr. Chidambaram had initiated the process for NGOs getting foreign funds.The present Govt. will now be expediting this process .
Thiere have been serious allegations of misuse of funds not only for conversion but anti-social activities, terrorism and other anti national activities.
Some NGOs are bound to protest but those who have nothing to hide should welcome if it leads to transparancy in their working.
Banning foreign remittances at present will not be feasible, but as the country becomes financially strong and can meet the needs of NGOs through Govt. aid and volutary contribution, it should be the ultimate goal.
The figure of 20 lakhs seems to be on the higher side. All NGOs have to be registered either with Charity Commissioners or as Registered Societies under the Societies Act. Aid from Govt. is difficult to get and not enough.It will be worthwhile to collect data Statewise and Subject-wise. You will be amazed to see heavy concentration in some states and very small nos in many states.
Getting them under RTI will be a tall order. Even PPP projects are not under RTI. But public opinion should be built for NGOs totally dependent on Govt. or foreign funding.

                                                                                                                 WHY FOREIGN FUNDING FOR NGOs ?
 
While some NGOs are protesting about the accusation of intelligence bureau that some NGOs receive foreign funds which are misused ,  the question arises in one's mind immediately  as to why these NGOs receive funds from abroad at all. Can they not function well with the money made available to them by the government (around Rs. 950 crores per annum)  and by many donors in India ?
 
While it is true that many NGOs are doing good work in  several areas, there is suspicion that quite a number of NGOs in the country view the NGO activities as "business opportunity" perhaps, this explains as to why there are around   20 lakh  number of NGOs in the country at present. ( One for every 600 citizens)  Several  promoters of NGOs who are not employed and who have no known source of income often are seen living in comfortable life style, with posh office facilities and  travelling frequently. Obviously, such promoters divert part of the donation made to the NGOs for their personal benefits. It is also believed that under the cover of NGO, the overseas funds are used for conversions and other purposes under the guidance of overseas masters.
 
NGOs have very crucial role to play, since large percentage of countrymen living  below poverty line and exploitation of the innocent  people and atrocities against women are increasing.. At the same time, it has to be ensured that bad elements and  motivated  campaigners do not hide their true colour in the name of NGOs.
 
Certainly, there is strong case that Government of India should closely monitor the activities of NGOs particularly those receiving funds from abroad  and NGOs should be brought under RTI Act.
 
It would be even appropriate that Government of India should ban the practice of NGOs receiving  funds from abroad  once for all.
