#GoBackAmul, #SaveNandini are some of the hashtags t𝓰hat are trending on Twitter ever since Gujarat-based dairy cooperative society Amul announced that it would supply liquid curd and milk in Bengaluru.
"Gujarat based Amul had previously tried to enter Karnataka's market to sell milk and curd. We had not allowed it to happen then, but now @BJP4Karnataka is welcoming them⛄ with open arms," said former chief minister Siddaramaiah on Twitter🐈.
Other opposition leaders and pro-Kannada groups expresseౠd their apprehension that the arrival of Amul could endanger the state's local brand Nandini, owned by the Karnataka M♓ilk Federation (KMF), an Indian Express report stated. The move comes after Union Home Minister Amit Shah pushed for cooperation between Amul and Nandini during a public address in Mandya.
The former CM also said, "Beware of @PMOIndia @narendramodi, @HMOIndia @AmitShah & their double engine govt!! The🌳y will sell all the assets belonging to Kannadigas. After destroying our banks, they are now determined to destroy Nandiཧni KMF - a brand built by our farmers."
Janata Dal (Secular) as well took to Twitter and said, “In a situation where KMF Nandini’s miꦕlk, ghee and butter are not available in all parts of the state, what does this development of Gujarat’s Amul company for online marketing indicate? Doesn’t this feel like a black shadow on the work of countless Kannadigas who sustain on Nandini’s milk?”
