    THE PARTNERS POST WWW.MAHINDRAPARTNERS.COM A MAHINDRA PARTNERS PUBLICATION NOVEMBER 2020 2nd October 1945 Mahindra MohaMMed A significant combination, which represents what might well be termed a co- operative effort to secure for India that industrial development so indispensable to the full realisation of her future dreams. You have heard of plans, many plans, in this connection. Now comes a positive, concrete and co-ordinated scheme to develop India’s resources and raise the standard of living of the masses. Devised by an Indian business man after a careful three-year study of American wartime achievements, it has secured the support and ready assistance of a group of business men with long experience and a firm faith in their country’s destiny. In their anxiety to further the industrial and agricultural development of this country, the founders of this co-operative organisation believe that they must have the support of those who will benefit most – the general public – and to secure that support it is essential that their aims and objects should be generally acceptable. Here, then, are the principles which will guide their future activities – FIRSTLY, encouragement of private enterprise and the initiative of the individual. SECONDLY, belief in the ability of corporate institutions to oppose anti-social trends, such as monopolies and cartels. THIRDLY, recognition of the fact that the labourer is worthy of his hire and that in co-operative working lies the dignity of human toil. FOURTHLY, confidence in the ultimate success of their ventures and in the capacity and aptitude of the people to give effect to them.
