The election journey began with the launch of an innovative election portal which was an important tool in insuring that the elections have fair, equal, & transparent participation of all the members. With over 36,000 cooperative societies under its umbrella, IFFCO embarked on the monumental task of electing RGB members, comprising the General Body. This intricate process spanned over two months, reflecting the vastness and complexity of IFFCO's reach and operations.
The introduction of the new election system marked a significant milestone, eliminating the need for physical presence in Delhi for form submission or nomination filing. This streamlined approach reflected IFFCO's commitment to inclusivity and accessibility for all member societies, regardless of their geographical location.
