Dr. Samit Sharma, Registrar of Cooperatives, Rajasthan, is bringing renewed energy to the state’s Cooperative Department through focused and hands-on leadership, local news outlets say.
Known for transforming medicine supply and promoting affordable generic medicines during his tenure in the Health Department, Sharma is now stressing public-friendly administration, accountability and quick resolution of issues.
His emphasis on timely execution, performance monitoring, workplace improvements and discipline is helping foster a more responsive work culture.
His hands-on approach and determination to improve systems from within are drawing appreciation as Rajasthan’s cooperative administration seeks greater efficiency and accessibility.
You have reported correctly—the cooperative sector is now moving at corporate speed. I believe this individual should remain here for at least one more year.
There is still a lot to be done, such as:
Implementing online cash books in Purchase & Sale Cooperatives and Consumer Stores.
Mandating the online uploading of society inspection reports.
Assigning more responsibilities to inspectors at the block level, which will rapidly curb embezzlement and scams in Gram Seva Cooperatives.
A PACS Manager remaining posted in the same society for prolonged periods is a major cause of financial fraud. Implementing a long-overdue cadre-based transfer policy to ensure mandatory transfers after a fixed timeframe will bring about an immediate and significant transformation.
