Delivering the keynote address, T.

In an age where the existence and survival of cooperative societies are faced with the onslaught of globalized and liberalized market scenario, the need to propagate cooperative education cannot be overemphasized. Accordingly, a training programme for educating and equipping these departmental junior field staffs has been organized to disseminate proper accounting procedure to the grass-root society members/promoters. The need of imparting training to these junior field staffs has gained much more importance due to the recent direction of the State Cabinet for cancellation of defunct and non-functioning cooperative societies.

He also emphasized that our fore-fathers were known for hard-work and honesty but lately we have become very lazy and corrupt. He reminded every officer and staffs to be diligent in their work and be available in their place of posting.
