Noting that cooperative movement has played a major role on many occasions earlier, Shah said "cooperative is not new for India" and "I request that this movement should not be stopped in any case". 

On this occasion, the Minister of State for Cooperation, BL Verma and the President of International Cooperative Alliance (Global), Dr Ariel Guarco were also present. 

The conference was organized by India`s leading cooperative organization IFFCO, National Cooperative Federation of India, Amul, Sahakar Bharti, NAFED, KRIBHCO and all cooperatives together. 

The conference was attended by more than 2,000 cooperative members from across the country in person, while nearly 5 crore cooperative people from all over the country joined the event virtually. 

Recently, the Ministry of Cooperation has been formed and the reins of the ministry were handed over to Shah, who is already heading the Ministry of Home Affairs. 

The core mantra of the Ministry of Cooperation is to strengthen the cooperative movement in the country, provide a separate administrative, legal and policy framework and streamline the processes to enable the development of Multi-State Cooperative Societies (MSCS). 

The Centre expects that the Ministry of Cooperation will definitely do unprecedented work to implement the dream of Prime Minister Modi of `Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas`. 

Dr Ariel Guarco, President of the International Cooperative Alliance (Global), also joined the event to accelerate and strengthen the campaign of Indian cooperatives. 

Around three million cooperatives from 110 countries of the world are associated with the International Cooperative Alliance (Global). 

This conference is significant in view of playing an important role in strengthening Indian cooperatives on the global stage. 

It will also work towards realizing the aim of the Prime Minister`s `Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas`.
