It is now widely recognised that the state and voluntary sector need to form a strong relationship for better development process and build a stronger civil society. Such cooperation should not be based on replication or replacement of State activities and obligations, but on the adoption of complementary roles predicated on each sector's unique characteristics. The studies on NGOs reveal that there is mixed opinion on the role of NGOs in the development process. The studies point out that the factors like proximity to people far and near, flexibility, innovativeness, human touch, spirit of self-service, democratic interpretation of the needs and desires of the poor, implementation of interventions that are relevant to people, de-bureaucratisation, etc. have enabled the NGOs to play an important role in the development process. - Reproduced.
