NGOs get Rs 11,500 crore in foreign funds, but only2% file returns-Report from TOI.
During 2011-2012, 22,702 NGOs reported receipt of foreign contribution amounting to Rs 11,546.29 crore.
NEW DELHI: Despite voluntary organizations receiving over Rs 11,500 crore in foreign funds annually, only 2% of the 20 lakh-odd NGOs operating in the country file annual returns with the government, raising eyebrows in the home ministry.
According to a home ministry report, although there is no centralized database on the number of NGOs in the country and the quantum of finance involved in their operations, unofficial figures indicate that there are over 20 lakh NGOs registered under Societies Registration Act, Trusts Act etc. However, the number of NGOs registered under Foreign Contribution (Regulation) Act would be less than 2% of the total number of NGOs.
"Though the number of associations reporting receipt and utilization of foreign contribution is increasing, it is a matter of concern that a large number of registered associations still do not submit their statutory annual returns mandated by the law," the home ministry report on receipt and utilization of foreign contribution by voluntary associations said.
A total of 43,527 NGOs were registered under the Foreign Contribution (Regulation) Act up to March 31, 2012. During 2011-2012, 22,702 NGOs reported receipt of foreign contribution amounting to Rs 11,546.29 crore. In all, 9,509 NGOs have reported no receipt of foreign contribution while many have not filed returns. Among all states and UTs, NGOs in Delhi received highest amount of foreign contributions — Rs 2,285.75 crore— in 2011-12.
