Abstract

In the developing world, there are a plethora of development issues. All the
development issues are associated with a poor education system, violation of
basic human rights, poor standards of living, and deprivation of basic needs.
Also, some organizations are constantly working to improve the indicators of
development. These organizations are called non-governmental organizations.
The research study has been conducted to explain the role of nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) in the Merged districts of Khyber
Pakhtunkhwa. A qualitative research methodology has been used to achieve
the research objectives. Data Analysis has been performed through NVIVO
software. This research finding has highlighted the role of NGOs and has
shown that militancy, Frontier Crime Regulation (FCR), cultural norms, basic
rights were the major factors that influenced the role of NGOs in the tribal
districts. The research has concluded that the NGOs have played a significant
role in improving political, social, and economic indicators in the merged
districts. Overall, there is a positive role of a non-governmental organization
in the merged districts of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
