Inaugurating the workshop, West Garo Hills Deputy Commissioner, Pravin Bakshi commended the organizers for their initiative to improve PACS through thorough analysis and imparting of necessary training to the members. Stressing on the need to offer guidance to PACS, Bakshi said that there is a lot that needs to be done to improve the capacity and performance of PACS through special government interventions.

Lamenting that cooperative societies in the region usually see themselves as beneficiaries, Bakshi urged PACS to come out of that particular mindset and see themselves as entrepreneurs. He stated that humans were born entrepreneurs and as such was industrious.
