The minister of social justice and empowerment, Ms Meira Kumar, Friday said that 21 of the 1,050 NGOs working in different fields had been blacklisted by the ministry for non-utilisation of funds sanctioned to them. "Their next phase of funds has been held back and steps have been initiated to recover the funds from them," she told reporters at a function here to release the National Survey of the Extent, Pattern, and Trends of Drug Abuse in India. These 1,050 NGOs together got 22.5 crore in the last year.
