Population is an asset to the economy as it is linked to the scale of a market: Amit Shah

Union Home and Cooperation Minister Amit Shah said on Tuesday that population is an asset to the economy as it also linked to the scale of a market. India’s population was 130 crore till 2014 but market was limited to only 70 crore people as the remaining 60 crore did not have purchasing power,” Mr. Shah said at a Cooperation Ministry event. Mr. Shah asked the cooperatives to also register themselves as sellers on the GeM platform as it would provide a huge platform to sell their products to a large pool of government buyers. The government was taking various steps to bring reform in the cooperative sector, such as framing a new cooperative policy, setting up a university for training purposes and establishing export houses, Mr. Shah said.
