Jaipur, July 10 (NationPress) Union Home and Cooperative Minister Amit Shah is scheduled to arrive in Jaipur on July 17 to officially inaugurate the Cooperative Conference being held in the state capital, according to party representatives.
This event marks a significant government initiative, with Shah attending in his role as Union Minister for Cooperation, as reported by party workers to IANS.
The conference aligns with the United Nations General Assembly's designation of 2025 as the International Year of Cooperatives.
In this framework, the Central Government has assigned 54 cooperative-related initiatives to various states, with Rajasthan hosting this significant event.
Amit Shah's participation in the conference underscores his position as Union Minister for Cooperation. Notably, Chief Minister Bhajan Lal Sharma met with Shah in Delhi on May 29 to extend a formal invitation to the event.
During their meeting, Sharma also provided Shah with insights into various state-oriented cooperative initiatives, which include the computerisation of Primary Agricultural Credit Societies (PACS), the “Mhaaro Khato Mhaaro Bank” initiative, the Gopal Credit Card Scheme, and the Cooperative Se Samriddhi Abhiyan.
While details of Shah’s itinerary are still pending, sources indicate that he may engage in internal discussions with BJP state leadership during his visit.
Key organisational issues are likely to be addressed, particularly with the new BJP state executive committee announcement pending. It has been over four months since Madan Rathore was appointed as the BJP state president.
Although Rathore has submitted the proposed list of executive members to the party’s central leadership, the final approval is still awaited.
Shah’s upcoming visit has thus heightened activity within both government and party circles, sparking discussions on governmental performance and political strategies in anticipation of the forthcoming civic and local body elections.
