Education202553 sections7 chapters

The "Tribhuvan" Sahkari University Act, 2025 establishes a premier national university in India by incorporating and expanding the existing Institute of Rural Management Anand (IRMA) in Gujarat. It regulates the university's governance, academic structure, and the standardisation of the cooperative curriculum. It applies to the university’s students and staff, as well as personnel and board members of cooperative societies across India. This matters because it addresses India’s fragmented training systems by creating a central "Centre of Excellence". This ensures a steady supply of professionally trained, high-quality manpower to substantially strengthen and grow the nation’s cooperative movement.
