Introduction

Sahakar Bharati is the only pan India organisation of CoOperators and CoOperatives. It envisages to create, both in Rural and Urban areas, a strong and devoted cadre of selfless CoOperators and a chain of CoOperatives which would spread the knowledge of the CoOperative Movement which in the present circumstances can only act as the ‘saviour’ for the upliftment of Small Farmers, Landless Labourers, Vanwasis, Women, SHGs and JLGs, Rural Craftsman and Technicians, Jobless Youth from the Middle and Lower income groups.

Vision
