Addressing the SC–ST Business Summit in Gandhinagar, IFFCO Chairman Dileep Sanghani emphasized on inclusive growth as he underlined that cooperatives are emerging as a powerful vehicle to integrate marginalised entrepreneurs into mainstream economic activity.
Referring to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision, he recalled that after 75 years of Independence, the government launched the dedicated Ministry of Cooperation with the resolve of “Sahkar se Samriddhi” to ensure prosperity through collective effort.
He said the ministry is working to modernise cooperatives, expand access to credit, markets and technology, and create new opportunities for youth and first-generation entrepreneurs.
Sanghani noted that the SC–ST Business Summit provides a meaningful platform for dialogue, networking and policy support, enabling entrepreneurs to scale up enterprises and contribute to nation-building while reinforcing social equity and economic empowerment.
