I know, and agree with, the point you are making. We have too many NGOs and not much being done. I agree. But, I hope you understand why one cannot take your stats literally.

Sure there are 85k NGOs, but each one has different reason/purpose. If each one were to raise the living standard of Nepali then you can make that case. Some are strictly there for environmental reasons, some for health and others for various other reasons.

One can even argue that INGOs aren't acting in interest of Nepal. Some will claim them to be international propaganda/spy campaigns. Whatever the truth is, they are there and we need a sound government policy to regulate them and get an efficient outcome from them. I know many of them are doing a good job, others could follow suit, rather than just providing a good car and high income for the employees.
