Nandini Milk

Karnataka Milk Federation has installed a geo-positioning system on its vehicles that supply ghee to the Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD), which manages the Tirupati temple, following a row over substandard 'ghee' used in Tirupati laddus.

The Karnataka Milk Federation (KMF) today announced a hike in milk prices with effect from June 26, but it also said it would be enhancing the quantity of milk in its half and one litre packets by 50 ml.

The BJP, which was accused by the Congress of threatening the local Nandini dairy brand by allowing the entry of Amul in Karnataka ahead of the assembly polls earlier this year, is now attempting to turn the tables.

Popular Karnataka dairy brand Nandini, which opened a few of its outlets in Kerala recently, has decided to put on hold its expansion plan in this southern state.

Milma, the trade name of Kerala Cooperative Milk Marketing Federation (KCMMF), on Wednesday said it achieved impressive sales despite challenges posed by other state-brands that are allegedly violating basic tenets of the cooperative dairy movement.

The LDF government in Kerala on Sunday said it was concerned over the entry into the state of milk and milk products of popular Karnataka brand Nandini and asserted that it would strongly oppose the move.

Left-ruled Kerala's milk federation has written to its Karnataka counterpart, urging it to reconsider its plans to step up sale of homegrown brand Nandini in Kerala.

The Congress has joined the BJP in an attempt to use Karnataka's 'Nandini' dairy brand to relate with the state's identity in next week's polls, furthering a political storm that erupted earlier this month.

The BJP has promised free 'Nandini' brand's milk for those below the poverty line in Karnataka if it retains power in the state, weeks after a political row erupted over dairy giant Amul's entry into the state.

Amid the Nandini versus Amul battle in Karnataka, Gujarat Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel stressed on Monday that there is no need to boycott Amul in the southern state.

In the backdrop of the Nandini vs Amul battle, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Sunday bought a Nandini ice cream and termed the brand "Karnataka's pride."

Caught in the political row over market place battle with popular Karnataka brand Nandini, head of the Gujarat-based cooperative selling Amul brand on Tuesday said it will sell milk and curd only through online channels in Bengaluru.

DK Shivakumar on Monday visited a Nandini Milk parlour in the Hassan amid the ongoing charges and counter-charges between the ruling BJP and the Opposition Congress and JD(S) over Amul's announcement of foraying into the Karnataka market.

The BJP on Sunday accused the Congress of unleashing a "misinformation campaign" over dairy cooperative Amul's presence in Karnataka and asserted that it has done far more than the opposition party to strengthen the Karnataka Milk Federation.

It started with an announcement that Gujarat-based Amul will start online deliveries in Bengaluru, upsetting those associated with the state's own formidable dairy brand, Nandini.
