1. Introduction:

The spectrum of Cooperative Movement is seen in all classes of societies cutting across Professions, Occupations, Age, Gender, and Places. It has no bounds. There are cooperatives for labours and lawyers, students and teachers, fish farmers, and filmmakers. There are cooperatives for producers and consumers, farmers, artisans, doctors, drivers, etc., The cooperatives are found in metros, towns, and villages too, and in plains and hill areas. There are cooperatives for horticulture, mulberry growers, and industrialists. Cooperatives are there in Education, Excise, Banking, Housing Medical, and Health departments. So its spread is limitless. It is unique in its versatility in dealing with divergent subjects. There is also huge potential for the formation of cooperatives in emerging areas such as Energy, Warehousing, Seed production, Tourism, Health, etc.,   

The cooperative moment symbolizes the collective strength of the weak. Weak implies people of all weaker sections of the society such as SCs, STs, Women, Small and Marginal farmers, Rural Artisans, Labours, Construction workers, Consumers, and all resource-poor as well as vulnerable people. Weak also implies economically exploited and those unable to harvest their resources to optimum capacity.
