Chairman’s Message
Dear Members and Citizens,
It is with great pride and a deep sense of responsibility that I extend my warm greetings to all associated with the cooperative movement in our state. State Cooperative Election Authority Uttarakhand has been entrusted with the crucial task of upholding democratic principles within cooperative institutions, ensuring that elections are free, fair, transparent, and in full compliance with the law.
Cooperatives are the backbone of our rural and urban economies, fostering self-reliance, inclusivity, and economic growth. A strong, vibrant cooperative sector relies on democratic governance, which begins with credible and timely elections. Our commission is committed to creating an environment where every member of a cooperative society can exercise their right to vote and contest, strengthening the very foundation of participatory democracy.
We have taken several initiatives to modernize the electoral process, leveraging technology to enhance efficiency, accuracy, and transparency. From digital voter lists to streamlined nomination processes, our focus remains on minimizing disputes and ensuring smooth conduct of elections.
I call upon all cooperative members, leaders, and officials to actively participate in this process, uphold the spirit of cooperation, and contribute to building institutions that truly reflect the will and aspirations of their members.
Together, let us work towards a cooperative movement that is democratic, accountable, and a model for good governance.
With best wishes,
Mr. Hansa Dutt Pande
Chairman, State Cooperative Election Authority Uttarakhand
