NON profit in Pakistan!

Recently two incidents of rape were occurred in twin cities schools. Twin cities, are considered slightly more educated and aware in terms of social issues. Daily many cases of rape, violence have occurred, but due to un-accountability and lawlessness in institutions many have gone unnoticed.  Unawareness of issues and how to cope with diseases and disasters have a form of poverty too.  Having money or being financially strong doesn’t make anyone rich, when they don’t know to use money properly. Ratio of drop out children from schools belongs to those families, where fathers are doing nothing or doing labor in abroad.  Mostly, are unaware of the importance of education and proper usage of money.  Whilst, uneducated mass has vulnerable to infection and diseases. These all relate to development of person or society; also known as social development.
Being a developing country, unluckily political parties consider change would occur through instant development; roads, bridges or any other cosmetic projects. Meanwhile, education or any other issue have lost somewhere.  If you see many hospitals or schools was built by charity organization or usually name after the political person.  No or less development has seen in remote and slums areas. Rather to provide basic provision, government or local authorities declared them red zone areas or illegal. Therefore, many of these residents have gone backward.  Like this, many urban areas, where people are not aware of their rights and duties, are highly prone to abuse of any type.
Likewise, many started the raising awareness on their own.  These are those nonprofit organization, which have been working for the betterment of people of their own as CSOs and are collaborating with government in different projects too for perusing the efforts of social development. The point I was making here, there is always a need of third party who will work on their own for betterment of society and ensure social development.

Last night, largest child based organization; “Save the children” were ordered to close the business in Pakistan, due to alleged of anti- state activities. And over night, they have made thousands Pakistani civilians unemployed.  All of a sudden, it changed the fate of many, non- profit sector immensely effected by this. People started updating various statuses showing their anger, many tweeting projects and videos of victim NGO.  Many opposing nonprofit organization entirely.

 No doubt, it was a great move by current government, who ordered to leave INGO working in Pakistan for over 30 years, on the involvement in anti -state activities.  We are those hypocrites, who scream out for extremism and terrorism, if they need our sacrifice, then no welcome note.  Moreover, government is lining up few more NGOs, in suspicions of back of US, Israel and India. My question is, if they had been working for anti-Pakistan forces, why no action took placed earlier?  Why after 30 years? Why actions weren't shouldn’t take yearly?
We need to understand, this action was taken for the betterment of country. No personal involvement and interest wasn't witnessed. But taking care of 2000 unemployed civilians are surely country and government's responsibility. One cannot ignore this, as another case of downsizing. Let me explain, it’s not a downsizing of just employees like banks, it’s a loss of thousands children and families who were getting support from this alleged anti-state activities INGO. They made schools, educate children and empower their parents and also gave them livelihood training to those remote and slum areas, which government totally forgot about and never considered part of country. If you don’t help, these vulnerable children and families then one doesn’t have right to cancel the license or sealed their businesses.
 In nutshell, provision of basic needs is a big responsibility of government rather to made luxurious roads and buses. Yearly audit of every organization should be made. Foreign funded agenda channels should also be banned. Government should take responsibility of all their schools and provide assistance to all children in remote areas. No nation could reach their full boom, when their coming generation was suffering for basic needs. Aftermaths of this decision, government is equally responsibility of all the consequences.
