In a major victory National Council for Cooperative Training has been able to get the transfer of ownership of land to Madhusudan Institute of Cooperative Management.
The land was earlier in the name of the Odisha State Cooperative Union which meant the Odisha government was the owner.
”I was attending my ailing father in Bhubaneswar in a hospital when I was told by my local office to meet the Special Secretary of the Odisha government on the issue. Despite my extremely time-strapped schedule, I went for the meeting and convinced the state government officials of the merit of the case,” the Secretary of the NCCT Mr Mohan Mishra told Indian Cooperative.
”Later the state government through a letter informed us that our request has been granted. The efforts had really been worthwhile and rewarding,” a happy Mishra informed.
The NCCT has established its own training infrastructure comprising Vaikunth Mehta National Institute of Cooperative Management, Pune at National level, 5 Regional Institutes of Cooperative Management at Bangalore, Chandigarh, Gandhinagar, Kalyani, and Patna.
It has 14 Institutes of Cooperative Management at Bhopal, Bhubaneswar, Chennai, Dehradun, Guwahati, Hyderabad, Imphal, Jaipur, Kannur, Lucknow, Madurai, Nagpur, Pune and Thiruvananthapuram.
