The IFFCO Parivar is upbeat since the government’s Citizen Engagement Platform “MyGovIndia” has lauded the co-op behemoth for its achievement at the global level. IFFCO MD Dr. U S Awasthi was one of the first to thank the government for expressing its appreciation.
On IFFCO’s achievement, MyGovIndia tweeted “Securing the first rank among top 300 cooperatives in the world, IFFCO continues to strengthen India’s Agriculture sector. #TransformingIndia”.
