Data insights	One notable trend in the data is the decrease in the number of cooperative societies per lakh of population over time. From 76 in 1950-51, the number has steadily declined to 64 in 2020-21. This suggests a potential shift away from cooperative societies as a preferred form of organization for economic activities in India. Another interesting trend is the increase in the number of members per cooperative society over time. In 1950-51, there were only 29 members per cooperative society, but this number has steadily increased to 389 in 2020-21. This could indicate that cooperative societies have become larger and more consolidated over time, with fewer societies serving more members.
