Abstract
Odisha is one of the fastest growing states in the country. Odisha has become a model for good governance and public service. The state has implemented the 5T model of governance, which prioritizes transparency, teamwork, technology, time, and transformation. The committee will function under the administrative control of RCS, Odisha. For monitoring the functioning and addressing the challenges in implementation of the scheme the State Government has constituted State Level Monitoring and Implementation Committee (SLMIC) with Secretary to Government, Cooperation Department as Chairman to extend all possible guidance as well as steering the implementation whereas District Level Monitoring and Implementation Committee (DLMIC) with collector of the district as the Chairman for smooth implementation of the project as per approved guidelines and provide necessary support like power connectivity etc. The cooperative movement eco-system has embarked on a commendable and authentic endeavour, which will undoubtedly fortify the movement within the state. This undertaking signifies a significant stride towards converting small-scale enterprises at the village level, thereby rendering previously unattainable services accessible in remote areas at an affordable price. Moreover, this audacious initiative aims to elevate the Primary Agricultural Credit Societies (PACS) into formidable establishments, capable of functioning as multifaceted service centres. Undoubtedly, this progressive measure will effectively bridge the developmental divide between urban and rural regions in Odisha.
