TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ Cooperation minister Amit Shah on Monday said the cooperative sector can play an important role in making India self-reliant as well as ensuring economic prosperity of 70 crore poor who are aspiring to lead better lives. Shah, also the Union home minister, asked the cooperatives to channelise these 70 crore people and make them financially self-reliant.
