| Summary, etc. |
The Government-NGOs relations have always been a matter of a great deal of interest for the researchers, professionals and policy makers. In India, the equations between the Government and NGOs have been erratic and unpredictable not for officially prescribed conditions but for political affiliations, regime ideology, lobbying and invisible benefits shared by the vested interests. This article seeks to explain the nature of Government-NGOs relations in the context of emerging trends and the cumbersome process of receiving and utilising governmental grant. On the basis of an empirical analysis of 24 registered NGOs working in 15 states, the researcher concludes that prevailing ethos and strait-jacket-culture governing relationship patterns have given enough scope for corrupt practices, political expediency, red-tapism, arbitrariness and abuse of discretionary powers. It is observed that intense campaigns by NGOs for transparency and good governance, media surveillance and citizens' assertiveness, in a long run, could play a vital role in transforming archaic traits of government NGOs relations in India. - Reproduced. |
