Abstract:
According to B Baviskar, India is gradually morphing into a society which is characterised by the decline of the state and the increasing prominence of the role of Civil Society Organisations (CSO) (Baviskar, 2001). Indeed, the role of CSOs has significantly increased in nation building, as compared to the period right after independence, when the State was largely responsible for delivering fundamental services such as water supply, healthcare, education, sanitation etc. to its citizens. Today, with over 3 million registered Non Governmental Organizations (NGOs) in the country, many of these services are largely being provided by NGOs and other forms of civil society.
