In India, an integral part of the policies formed by the Co-operative movement is focused on the development of the country, upliftment of poor and propagation of principle which represents the very socio-cultural ethos of the country. Co-operative movement has enabled us to develop the economy and to bring social change at large. The success of the co-operative depends largely on their ability to face the challenges by converting these challenges into opportunities of growth and development in the fast changing liberalized economic era. The Indian co-operative movement is so far the largest movement in the world. In India co-operatives operate in almost all important sectors i.e. agricultural, agro-processing, fertiliser, marketing, credit, dairies, spinning, handloom and handicrafts, sugar, fisheries, banking, etc.
Co-operatives are based on the values of self-help, self-responsibility, democracy, equality, equity and solidarity. The co-operative principles are the guidelines by which co-operatives put their values into practice. The International Co-operative Alliance (ICA) in its centennial conference held in Manchester in September 1995 approved and adopted seven basic principles of Co-operation.
- Voluntary and Open Membership
- Democratic Member Control
- Member Economic participation & Control
