Union Home and Cooperation Minister Amit Shah has announced that the central government has planned to set up a National Cooperative University offering training courses in its colleges throughout the country.
He announced that the Centre will come up with different measures to strengthen the cooperative movement in the country aiming to introduce a transparent system for agriculture finance. Further, skilled and efficient manpower will be brought to ensure professionalism in the cooperative sector.
Speaking at the convocation ceremony of the Vaikunth Mehta National Institute of Cooperative Management (VAMNICOM) in Pune, Amit Shah said the Narendra Modi-led BJP government has planned to come up with a new cooperative policy in order to expand the business in the cooperation sector.
He also pointed out the implementation of a cooperative formation plan for the next 25 years to enlarge the business.
Earlier, there were many opportunities in the business sector before students who were stepping out of the institutes with degrees, the minister said.
The government will soon establish a national university for the cooperative management courses with its affiliated colleges in different states, Shah said.

Currently, the union home and cooperation minister is on a two-day visit to Maharashtra, which is his first visit after becoming the Union Co-operative Minister.
Mr. Shah also attended the co-operative rally at Pravaranagar (Loni) in Ahmednagar from where the country's first co-operative sugar mill started.
Maharashtra Co-operative Banks Administrator Vidyadhar Anaskar, on the behalf of Maharashtra's cooperative sector presented different demands of co-operative banks before Shah.
Since the union government has planned to establish a national cooperative university specifically for the cooperative sectors, it should be built in Pune, as it is the foundation of the cooperative sector.
Further, there have been requests to establish a university at the VaikunthBhai Mehta Campus, which also works in the cooperative field, Anaskar said.
