Darpan Registration
The NGO DARPAN is a free facility that the NITI Aayog provides the NGOs and VOs to help them keep themselves updated regarding new government schemes and grants. The platform will help build a stronger partnership between NGOs and the government.
Furthermore, completing the NGO DARPAN registration process gives NGOs more credibility and accountability. Though the portal started under the Prime Minister’s Office, the management later shifted to the NITI Aayog, with help from the Ministry of Electronics and IT. Since then, the portal has grown to become an e-governance application that helps foster a more transparent and healthy relationship between the government and NGOs.
