  1. It is really shocking figure’s about NGOs and we are also suffering with the same problems even with those NGOs who working for HIV prevention project with support of SACS means dealing with human lives. System supporting corrupt NGOs that is why they survives so long and they are doing official crime with consent of higher officials and got support from corrupt politicians. Now the time has come to take strong action against all corrupted NGOs and make them blacklist and cancelled their registrations.
