Launching the initiative, Union Cooperation Minister Amit Shah stated that the time has come for drivers to move beyond being mere service providers and become true stakeholders and self-reliant owners.
The panel discussion included Vinay Sheel Gautam, Director in the Ministry of Cooperation, and Rohit Gupta, Vice Chairman of Sahakar Taxi Cooperative Limited. The speakers elaborated on how the cooperative framework aims to ensure equitable profit-sharing, transparency, and long-term financial security for drivers.
The discussion underscored the growing importance of cooperative-led platforms in building inclusive and sustainable economic models in India’s mobility sector.
