National Cooperation Policy 2025
The National Cooperation Policy 2025, unveiled by Union Cooperation Minister Amit Shah on 24 July 2025, is only the second national policy the sector has had — the first dated to 2002 — and the first since the Ministry of Cooperation was created in 2021. Six pillars, 16 objectives and 83 action points carry a 2047 horizon under the banner 'Sahkar se Samriddhi': treble the sector's share of GDP by 2034, draw 50 crore Indians into active membership, and seat a cooperative in every village. On 12 August 2026 Parliament widened the NCDC's mandate, so central money can reach societies and their service bodies directly.
