Transformation of the rural economy is the paramount goal of the government in Delhi and this can be accomplished only through the development of a network of cooperatives and self-help groups in the country , said Union Minister of road transport and highways C P Joshi while inaugurating ‘Sahkari Samiti Bhawan’ in Bhilwara in Rajasthan.
The economic change in the countryside is critical to the existence of a strong Indian economy. It is on this philosophical basis that various public policies are being formulated, added the union minister.
The minister also called for social transformation including the gender equality for grappling with the challenges that lie ahead of the country.
According to him , the country can experience a great change if there is a vibrant cooperative movement working in the country.
