Vamnicom & GCMMF launch ‘The Clean Fuel Rally’ in Pune
VAMNICOM partnered with the Gujarat Cooperative Milk Marketing Federation (GCMMF) and Bajaj Auto to host ‘The Clean Fuel Rally’ as part of the 71st All India Cooperative Week celebrations on November 15, 2024.
The rally highlighted the role of cooperatives in promoting sustainability and self-reliance, aligning with this year’s theme, “Cooperatives for a Sustainable and Self-reliant India.”
The event, held under the leadership of VAMNICOM Director Dr. Hema Yadav, showcased the institute’s commitment to environmental sustainability. Students from the 31st and 32nd PGDM-ABM batches actively participated, along with faculty and staff, emphasizing their dedication to sustainable initiatives.
The initiative culminates on National Milk Day, November 26, 2024, in Delhi, honouring the legacy of Dr. Verghese Kurien, the “Father of the White Revolution.” His pioneering efforts in transforming India’s dairy industry and his work with AMUL and Operation Flood are commemorated during this event, which underscores the importance of sustainable practices in the cooperative sector.
A group of 12 participants from GCMMF, including VAMNICOM alumnus Shubhendra Dwivedi, played a vital role in the rally. During their visit to the VAMNICOM campus, they engaged with faculty and students, sharing insights about sustainability and inspiring the younger generation to embrace cooperative values.
This rally not only honours Dr. Kurien’s contributions but also serves as a powerful reminder of the cooperative sector’s potential to drive innovation and sustainability, reads a press release mailed by the Vamnicom.
