Volunteerism is what is most noble in humans. And it stands to reason that volunteerism is fully exploited in the service of mankind. That voluntary organizations can meet many needs and aspirations of the people needs no demonstrated proof. The idea to make these organizations the corner stone of social development has been attempted but not fully exploited yet. That is why our government has decided, as policy, to associate voluntary organizations in all their programmes for the people, and help them financially to participate. Should voluntary organisations allow a dilution of the voluntary spirit by having in their organizational structure too many people to hold position of power ;in an ex-officio capacity? It goes without saying that some officials are as good as any run of the mill volunteer.

KEYWORDS: VOLUNTARY ORGANIZATION; INDIA.
