2. VOLUNTARY ORGANISATION
The organisation which actively and voluntary
enter into an social work to solve the problems of the
normal people without any compulsion or order and with
full involvement is called as the voluntary organisation.

3. VOLUNTARY ORGANISATION
AND INDIVIDUAL
 Human beings are nowhere perfect, but experience has shown that
voluntary workers, especially when they are given: certain
incentives, provided with the requisite facilities and are not looked
upon with disfavor by officials, can ensure better results in the social
and economic arenas.
 They have shown initiative as well as enterprise.
 They have adopted new paths and motivated large sections of the
masses while officials are able to create only temporary fervor and
enthusiasm.
 In present the individual is not waiting for any guidance or an
leadership they are coming forward voluntarily due to
involvement, interest, knowledge and technological improvement.

4. GROWTH OF VOLUNTARY
ORGANISATION
 In the early days the voluntary organisation was not had been known may it had

been resent but it cannot be explained or listed off but during the freedom
struggle it was noted well many leaders and people started to talk and also
involved in social improvement voluntarily
Most of the national activity in those years was conducted on a voluntary basis
We may recall the work done in the rural areas like:
Caste-ridden societies
The tribal regions and
Among women
Established by G.K. Gokhale, Mahadev Ranade, Bal Gangadhar Tilal and Lala
Lajpat Rai.
To facilitate their social transformation, by voluntary organization.
As the involvement of people increases the voluntary organisation also had
grown to a peak in India.

5.  There are many voluntary organisaton across the decades which are actively
rendering the service effectively their aim is to join the individual who come
forward voluntarily without any compulsion.
 Some of the well-known voluntary organizations currently doing valuable
public service are:

The Harijan Sevak Sangh
 The Bharatiya Depressed Classes League
 The Indian Red Cross Society
 The Ramakrishna Mission
 The Servants of India Society and
 The Social Work Centre

6. REASON FOR LACK OF GROWTH
 The tragedy is that many voluntary organizations except those which
enjoy the patronage of high-ups at the Central or State levels, have been
compelled to fold up owing to several adverse circumstances, including
intense rivalries and lack of adequate funds and workers.
 In each and every stage there was many reason for lack of growth like:
 Lack of involvement, fear, unwillingness
 Lack of awareness and lack of information
 Selfishness, greedy, technological improvement
 There was also some other reasons like lack of unity, difference in
opinion, lack of proper use of recourse etc,.

7. GOVERNMENT’S INVOLVEMENT
 The Government has called for voluntary action for the community
development and community upliftment. In the areas like:

Women's uplift
 Child welfare
 Family planning and in health
 Sanitation
 Educational
 Social and economic fields

This alone can involve massive involvement in programmers in fact, such schemes
are ineffective unless mass participation and community action are assured

8. NEGATIVE SIDE OF GOVERNMENT
 For several decades the Government of India was indifferent to voluntary
organizations.
 The vital impact of volunteers' work during the country's freedom struggle
was forgotten.
 Implementation of Government programmes implemented through officials
suffers from various shortcomings and deficiencies like:

Bureaucratic attitudes
 Red tapism
 Delays,
 Lack of earnestness and of sincerity among the workers
 Waste and leakage of funds
 Corruption
 No wonder the overall results are poor despite the heavy expenditure.

9. ITS FUTURE
 Voluntary organisation future is in hand of government to
provide fund and individuals in active participation
 As next 30 years India will have worlds highest population of
youth will help in leading the voluntary organisation in
effective way and also we should consider:
 Unless, they are regarded as partners in progress and accorded
their due place (just as the role of the private sector in the
planned economy is described as vital), they cannot function
without let or hindrance. Since the field is now wide open for
voluntary organizations, the prospects of expediting national
reconstruction are brighter.
