UNITED NATIONS, Jul 29 (PTI): Cooperatives in India have gone beyond their traditional boundaries and are now a medium for innovation and self-reliance in areas such as digital services, energy and financial inclusion, Home Minister and Minister of Cooperation Amit Shah told the UN.
Shah delivered a pre-recorded video message on Monday at a special commemorative event on ‘Cooperatives and Sustainable Development: Maintaining momentum and exploring new avenues’.
“In India, cooperation is a vibrant and community-driven system that envelopes every sector – from agriculture to finance, from consumption to construction, and from rural empowerment to digital inclusion through mutual collaboration and democratic participation,” Shah said.
