Cooperatives have already been the soul of India before independence- Shankarbhai Chaudhary
Assembly Speaker and Chairman of Banas Dairy Shankarbhai Chaudhary said that cooperatives have already been the soul of India before independence. Many new projects have started in the cooperative sector in the country under the leadership of first Cooperative Minister Amit Shah after the special initiative of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. He said that even today most of the cooperative leaders are continuously serving not for themselves, but for the welfare of others and to make the cooperative structure stronger. There are many cooperative leaders in India including Gujarat, who have dedicated their lives to the development of the cooperative sector, they should be appreciated.
‘The entire country showed a new direction in the cooperative model sector’
Sharing his experiences as a cooperative leader, Shankarbhai Chaudhary said that the then Chief Minister and the current Prime Minister Narendra Modi had taken many welfare decisions in Gujarat during his Chief Ministership period in Gujarat and in the interest of millions of councilors. In order to give more speed to this cooperative structure, Gujarat, under the leadership of Minister of State for Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel and Cooperative Minister of State for Cooperation, Gujarat has started many new dimensions and showed a new direction to the entire country in the cooperative model sector. He said that years ago, the farmers used to give some part to other sections of the village after their crop was ready, and when the farmer needed any need, these classes used to help them in various forms. So, it would be right to say that even at that time the spirit of cooperatives existed. Chaudhary said that before independence, Gandhiji gave the concept of village Swaraj. Cooperative structures were formed in different ways in different countries of the world including India. At that time the cooperative structure started in Gujarat under the leadership of Tribhuvandas Patel. When Prime Minister Narendra Modi was the Chief Minister of Gujarat, he always urged that elections should be held from time to time in the cooperative field, only then the concerned institutions will get new opportunities for development.
