Abstract
This research paper reviews the work done by NGOs in social development and also considers the changes that have taken place in recent times in the way NGOs look at society and government. In the pre-independence period, NGOs were formed to achieve independence and later the same organizations have started working for the establishment of an independent country. While working on many fronts facing the country such as poverty, unemployment, food shortage, public health, it should not be forgotten that NGOs complement the work of the government in every era. In particular, constructive or service-providing organizations were of great help in such work. Numerous such organizations, operating without any financial or other help from the government, set up great works all over the country. Many NGOs were formed to think about them and solve those problems. Individuals in such organizations come together for the same purpose and voluntarily accept their membership. In times of conflict and hostility, they maintain neutrality in matters of political, ethnic, religious or ideological controversy, without taking sides. However, in the last few years, the relationship of these NGOs, which are co-operating with the government, seems to have been strained due to various reasons. We do what the government wants us to do, go to the grassroots without expecting any results, serve, raise awareness and often work without the cooperation of the government by raising the necessary resources. While foreign aid agencies have been reluctant to lend a helping hand in India for various reasons, the attitude of society and government towards NGOs is becoming more and more tainted. In the name of transparency and easy recording of the work done, if more control is given to the work of NGOs.
