Karachi: The Sindh Cooperation Department has decided to introduce a computerised system in a bid to monitor the functioning of its societies, according to Provincial Minister for Livestock, Fisheries & Cooperation Abdul Bari Pitafi.
He expressed his views on the matter during a special meeting on Tuesday. Secretary Cooperation Department Akhtar Inayat was also present at the occasion.
Minister Pitafi regretted that the department had to intervene in the matters of cooperative societies due to personal differences of the stakeholders concerned. He stated that this practice would be put to an end.
To facilitate this measure, at least 12 cooperative societies will organise elections. Elected members will be tasked with looking after the matters of these projects.
Meanwhile, eight individuals presented their arguments on various cases pertaining to the cooperative schemes. The minister informed that a legal officer would be appointed to address the grievances of the persons concerned.
