THE PASSAGE OF THE "TRIBHUVAN SAHKARI UNIVERSITY " BILL IN HON'BLE PARLIAMENT OF INDIA IS WELCOME
Dear Readers,
NDDB SHOULD BE THE INSTITUTION TO PROMOTE THE CO-OPERATIVE UNIVERSITY BEING LOOKED FOR BY GOVT OF INDIA
I have read the News Item in the media where in, the incumbent Hon'ble Home Minister of India as well as the Minister for the new Ministry of Co-operation has said in the Parliament of India that the Government of India is looking for Institutions who would come forward to promote a "Co-operative University". He has also said that some institutions have come forward and offered to lead including Pune based "Vaikunth Mehta National Institute of Co-operative Management " but the Government has not yet decided about it.
Dr. V. Kurien, founder of NDDB ( National Dairy Development Board ), located at Anand (Gujarat State) in India, during his life time tried to uphold the philosophy of Co-operatives. He had proved the value of Co-operative by demonstrating successes through the organizations like “Amul” (the Globally Famous Dairy and Milk Brand today) and through the famous Project-Operation Flood for Dairy Development of India and contributing to National Development of India through this effort significantly, that remain in the history. He also faced undue bad-humiliation and a coup ( in 2005 ) and got thrown away from the very organizations including IRMA at the end and towards the very end of his life painfully that he had indirectly shared with me in person (articles here in my blog : drnimain.blogspot.com ).
NDDB has established many institutions when Dr. Kurien was its Chairman (Founder Chairman until 1998), in diversified fields including IRMA (Institute of Rural Management Anand, the premier business school of India ) as an educational institution. It is undisputed that NDDB (National Dairy Development Board ) led by Dr. V. Kurien was the real promoter of IRMA (though technically and formally it is IRMA Society who is the Promoter of IRMA).
It is NDDB who should lead as the Promotion of the Co-operative University being looked for by Government of India.
IRMA should remain and retain its status as autonomous, but help and use its resources to assist NDDB to establish the Co-operative University as a Central University.
IRMA can be affiliated to that new Co-operative University of NDDB, still retaining its autonomous and special status also, so that it can offer the Post Graduate programmes as MBA ( Rural Management ) and Ph.D. ( Rural Management ) for its PGDRM/PGDRM-X and FPRM Courses like the IIMs are able to do under the recent IIMs Act, 2017. As there can not be a separate act for IRMA this arrangement should fit the bill. It can be at par [ as the arrangement has been done for the IIMs (Indian Institutes of Management) under the IIMs Act,2017 ) and the FPRM of IRMA which has not been recognized yet will be easily recognized and get converted to Ph.D. and get duly recognized under this novel arrangement.
This article is appearing with my views on this subject here in my Blog, any of your friends and relatives (of the Readers) can also read freely, any of you (or any of them) having access to the Hon'ble Home Minister cum Minister of Co-operation of India, can convey this view to him in larger interest.
[ Dr. V. Kurien or Dr. Verghese Kurien, is popularly known as the "Milk Man of India " for his contributions to the Dairy Development ( steering the White Revolution of India with a world famous project named as "OPERATION FLOOD" in India benefiting millions of Farmers ( Dairy Farmers of India ), men and women. He started his career with "Amul" the World Famous Dairy Organization of India, was the Founder Chairman of Gujarat Co-operative Milk Marketing Federation Limited (GCMMF, or Amul by popular brand name), he was the Founder Chairman of National Dairy Development Board ( NDDB )of India, and also the Founder Chairman of IRMA ( Institute of Rural Management, Anand ) of India, besides a host of other Organizations very popular in India those operated under his command and popular globally. This year 2021 is being celebrated as the Birth Centenary Year of Dr.V. Kurien 1921-2021 by various Organizations/ Institutions he had founded or was associated with. I have been placing some articles in my Blog here in memory and honour of him, the readers can also read those articles that exist here].

Yes, I myself, it is the Truth, had made efforts in Public Domain by Writing the above Article in my Blog which is frequently read by Indian Public and Global Public, that the New Central Cooperative University should come to IRMA ( and should not go anywhere else ) and as on 1st April 2025, the Hon'ble Indian Parliament have passed the "Tribhuvan Sahakari University Bill" I am very happy about it along with our IRMA Alumni Community and we are fully Welcoming it.
Some, a handful few also among our IRMA Alumni may be Abusing me and Scandalizing me (due to their undue vengeance, and jealous wrath), however, I myself have always proved for the Alma Mater IRMA and in the "National Interest" with "Nation First Motto". Earlier I had got Global Recognition to IRMA by getting it Registered at WHED (www.whed.net) and at least I would say authentically that I had made efforts that the "Tribhuvan Sahkari University" should come to IRMA and should not go anywhere else.
