<b>Jamboree called âIndia Social Forum</b>â <!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->NGO Scenario in India .Â
Understand, over 32000 NGOâs are registered in India , of whom around 10% are committed in serious work in their respective fields. As many as 500 NGOâs are funded by foreign money to a tune of Rs 7200 Crores as per the statistics made available from Ministry of Home affairs for the year 2005, most of these NGOâs are run by Christian minorities for so called charitable activities. A revised FEMA act pending since 2004 is being brought in for discussions in the winter secessions of the Parliament and is likely to get node. The new act is likely to tighten the flow of money coming into India on garb of social work and being used for funding conversions and separatist movement in NE .
<b>The funding of Narmada Bachao Andolan is under scrutiny, understand, a multinational involved in selling Nuclear power plants, is funding it through itâs endowment</b>. Similarly <b>there was a guy by name Dr Iswar Gilada in Mumbai, who came in for scrutiny for operating a NGO Indian Health Organisation(IHO). His modus operandi would be to magnify the AIDs epidemic in India , by getting the high & mighty from the west, especially Hollywood stars to Faraâs road, a red light area of Mumbai and make good money out of the donations received towards AIDâs awareness program. He came up for scrutiny when he convinced the western world that India has the worldâs largest HIV /AIDâs infected people. Subsequently World Health Organization & Union Heath ministry stepped in to do a correct estimation, in the year 2005 the numbers were put at 5.1 million, not as much, he claimed in excess of 10s of millions, way back in late 90âs</b>.
Some of the NGOâs offer very good salary and perks, I had one offer to head a program, it carried handsome salary and perks, which, I never could imagine while serving the Govt.<b> Those NGOâs, who depend on Govt funds, are as corrupt as Govt functionaries, in reality, these NGOs are used for siphoning the funds under various welfare programs. The most notorious ministries are Women & Child welfare, Health, HRD & Environment ministries, one can form a bogus NGO and prepare a good project report and share the booty with the Govt officials</b>.
Interestingly the left Parivar of social activists are now funded by endowments of Multinationals, earlier the left frontal organizations were paid by the money siphoned from Indo-Russia trade. The so called tobacco & tea barons regularly paid a percentage to left frontal organizations & Congress party. The Russians also used its cultural wings to support the Left organizations logistically.
The demise of Soviet Union , made these frontal organizations adopt to the change, now they do not hesitate in taking funds from the West.

Yesterday, the CPI students union AISF was on the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium grounds waving its organizational flags and was celebrating the victory of democrats in US election to Senate and Congress. It was a hilarious sight to watch them celebrating democrats win. Perhaps gladdening the hearts of the endowments in US closer to democrats to fund their future activities.
The opening ceremony was addressed by Hannan Ashrawi (from Palestine ), Medha Patekar, Ruth Manorama, Subhashini Ali, Tulsi Mai Munda, Radhika Kumaraswamy (from Sri Lanka ) and Shubha Mudgal. Participants include Aruna Roy, Subhasini Ali, V P Singh, Medha Patkar, Jean Dreze, Aijaz Ahmed, Chiko Whitaker, Imtiaz Ahmed, Swami Agnivesh Vivan Sundaram, Gita Hariharan, Ratan Thiyam, Girish Karnad and Dr Vandana Shiva. Apart from hundreds of other specialists, so called social scientists, academicians, and activists belonging to left will pass on sermons of there relevance in 21st century. <b>The above named luminaries are well know to us as pseudo secularists, hell bent on their agenda of divisive politics and balkanizing India</b>
<b>Conclusion </b>
The left Parivar has found ways and means of being relevant in the modern times, by hijacking the NGO movement through. organizing Undri & Sundry under one umbrella.
The Need of the hour is to starve them of funds and make them irrelevant, simultaneously, highlighting the sincere NGOâs having core social purpose, who unfortunately account for only 10% of the present NGO corps.
I wonder how much New Delhi Municipal Corporation is going to spend in clearing the muck left behind by the free brigade, as it was evident at Mumbai meet of 2003.
Letâs see whatâs their new agenda, they have already equated Dr ManMohan Singh with Mr George Bush and are hailing American people of voting out Republicans â¦..as their own victory
As far as I am concern, I am enjoying the TamashaÂ
