Leadership is not about being ahead of others; it is about creating a path that others can walk with confidence.
The most enduring legacies are built by those who focus not on personal success, but on strengthening communities, institutions, and future generations.

पिछले दिनों मुझे कैलिफोर्निया विश्वविद्यालय, संत बारबरा (UCSB) जाने और वहाँ के ब्लम सेंटर फॉर पॉवर्टी एलीविएशन एंड डेमोक्रेसी की शैक्षणिक टीम एवं शोधकर्ताओं से मिलने का अवसर मिला। यह अनुभव मेरे लिए बेहद प्रेरणादायक और यादगार रहा।
Dr. Gaye Johnson के साथ “सहकारी अर्थव्यवस्था की शक्ति और संभावनाएँ” विषय पर हुई फायरसाइड चैट में शामिल होकर मैंने सहकारिता के क्षेत्र में अपने अनुभव साझा किए। साथ ही, डीन Charles Hale (चार्ली) द्वारा सहकारी अर्थव्यवस्था में मेरे योगदान के लिए सम्मानित किया जाना मेरे लिए गर्व का क्षण था।
इस यात्रा की सबसे खास बात युवा श���धकर्ताओं और विद्यार्थियों से मुलाकात रही, जो सहकारी संस्थाओं के माध्यम से सामुदायिक विकास, आजीविका सुधार, लोगों को सशक्त बनाने और समावेशी आर्थिक विकास जैसे विषयों पर ��ेहतरीन काम कर रहे हैं। प्रिसिला ओवुसु अमोआको, बेडलम ओक और सेयमा ओज़देमिर का शोध कार्य विशेष रूप से प्रभावशाली लगा। उनका समर्पण यह विश्वास और मजबूत करता है कि सहकारिता दुनिया की कई सामाजिक और आर्थिक चुनौतियों का प्रभावी समाधान बन सकती है।
चर्चा के दौरान मैंने इफको (IFFCO) की यात्रा और भारत में सहकारिता आंदोलन की मजबूती पर भी अपने विचार साझा किए। माननीय प्रधानमंत्री श्री नरेंद्र मोदी जी के ने���ृत्व और सहकारिता मंत्रालय में श्री अमित शाह जी के मार्गदर्शन में “सहकार से समृद्धि” का विजन लाखों लोगों को सशक्त कर रहा है और देश के विकास में नई भूमिका निभा रहा है।
मेरा हमेशा से मानना रहा है कि सहकारिता केवल एक व्यवसायिक मॉडल नहीं, बल्कि लोगों को साथ लेकर आगे बढ़ने, समाज को सशक्त बनाने और साझा समृद्धि का माध्यम है। भारत ही नहीं, बल्कि पूरी दुनिया में सहकारिता का भविष्य बेहद उज्ज्वल है।
भविष्य में भी मैं शोधकर्ताओं, शिक्षकों और विद्यार्थियों के साथ अपने अनुभव साझा करने तथा उनके प्रयासों में सहयोग देने के लिए हमेशा तत्पर रहूँगा।

Looking back at a memorable chapter from IUCF June, 2013.
The enthusiasm, participation, and overwhelming support from the people made these moments truly special. Even today, these memories serve as a reminder of the strength of community and collective spirit.
Grateful for the journey and everyone who contributed to making it meaningful.

I was delighted to visit the University of California, Santa Barbara, and engage with the vibrant academic community at the Blum Center for Poverty Alleviation and Democracy.
I had the privilege of participating in a fireside chat with Dr. Gaye Johnson on “The Power and Promise of Cooperative Economics” and was deeply humbled to be recognized by Dean Charles (Charlie) Hale for my contributions to and leadership in Cooperative Economics. I was particularly impressed by the research of Priscilla Owusu Amoako, Bedlam Oak, and Seyma Ozdemir, whose work reflects the transformative potential of cooperative enterprises.
One of the most inspiring aspects of my visit was interacting with graduate researchers whose work reflects the transformative potential of cooperative enterprises. I was particularly impressed by research exploring cooperative governance, community empowerment, livelihood enhancement, and inclusive economic development. Their dedication reaffirmed my belief that cooperatives can play a pivotal role in addressing many of the social and economic challenges facing the world today.
During the discussion, I shared insights from my decades-long journey in the cooperative sector and the remarkable growth of IFFCO as one of the world’s leading cooperative institutions. I also highlighted India’s strong commitment to the cooperative movement. Under the visionary leadership of Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi and the Ministry of Cooperation led by Shri Amit Shah, the vision of “Sahkar Se Samriddhi” is empowering millions and strengthening the contribution of cooperatives to national development.
I firmly believe that cooperative development is far more than a business model—it is a mission dedicated to inclusive growth, democratic participation, community empowerment, and shared prosperity. The future of cooperatives is exceptionally bright, not only in India but across the globe.
I was pleased to assure the faculty, researchers, and students that I remain committed to supporting their efforts and would be happy to share my experience and guidance in advancing impactful and sustainable cooperative enterprises.

On the death anniversary of former Prime Minister Chaudhary Charan Singh Ji, we pay our respectful tributes to a visionary leader who dedicated his life to the welfare of farmers.
His significant contributions to agriculture, agrarian reforms, and the cooperative sector continue to inspire generations.

Traffic management at Anand Vihar Terminal is pathetic.
Exit from Anand Vihar Railway junction and Anand Vihar Bus Terminal merge at one place causing utter confusion and tiring traffic congestion.
Needs immediate attention.
A proud throwback to a journey of commitment and responsibility - working towards national development, agricultural growth, farmer empowerment, and impactful leadership.
Success is achieved through strong teamwork, shared vision, trust, and dedication to a greater purpose. 🌱🇮🇳

Visited the India Community Centre in Cupertino and had the pleasure of meeting Smt. Lata Malviya, the great-great-granddaughter of Bharat Ratna Pt. Madan Mohan Malaviya Ji. As an alumnus of Banaras Hindu University, I felt truly elated.
I also met Shri Manoj Goel, CEO of the Centre. My son Anupam was with me during the visit.
आज 5 मई, मेरी आदरणीय माँ श्रीमती दुर्गावती अवस्थी जी की पुन्यतिथि है। लेकिन हर पल, हर जगह वे मेरे पास होती हैं।
मेरे हर रोम रोम में, साँस में उनकी दिव्य मुस्कान सदा बसी रहती हैं। मातृत्व की मीठी ख़ुशबू बिखेरती उनकी प्यारी मुस्कान मेरे जीवन का संबल रही है���आपको कोई देख नहीं सकता लेकिन आप हमेशा मेरे अंदर हैं।
आपकी स्मृतियाँ मेरे लिए अनमोल धरोहर हैं। अपनी धर्मपत्नी श्रीमती रेखा अवस्थी जी के साथ मिलकर आपको नमन करता हूँ। ओम् शांति
On the auspicious occasion of Buddha Purnima, heartfelt greetings and best wishes to everyone.

Road repair work on NH 3 between Mayur Vihar and Ghazipur is taking unduly long time. Commuters are suffering badly. In fact, the repair work seems to be unnecessary because the condition of the road is very good. Will Mr.Gadkari look into the matter?
Standing amidst nature beside India’s national bird, the Peacock, one is reminded that true grace lies not in noise, but in dignity, patience, and quiet confidence.
Nature teaches us that real strength is reflected in humility, balance, and the ability to preserve one’s identity with pride. 🦚🇮🇳

I felt touched by his gesture. He also presented a clock to me.
This reflects that IFFCO is a family. God bless him and the entire IFFCO family.

Deeply touched as Sh. Satya Narain Sharma ji and his son came to pay their regards to me. He retired from Aonla Unit on 31st March 2026.
He got a Titan watch set with mine and Smt. Rekha Awasthi ji’s photo as a present for his colleagues in the transport department.
On the birth anniversary of my dear friend Sh. Surinder Jakhar Ji, former Chairman of IFFCO, I fondly remember his wisdom, warmth, and remarkable leadership.
He will always remain an inspiration.
Om Shanti 🙏🏻
