With this, Nandini Varsel Amul has become a major campaign tool in this election. The Kannada day was fueled by news that Union Home Minister Amit Shah had recently suggested merging Nandini with Amul. The Kannadigas are infuriated by the imposition of a rule by the Karnataka Milk Association that the Hindi word Dahi should be on the packet of Nandini curd, like adding chilli to the wound.
At the same time, the Hotels and Restaurants Association of Karnataka decided to use only Nandini milk and milk products. Brihat Bangalore Hotels Association issued a statement to this effect without mentioning Amul’s name. “Karnataka Nandini milk produced by our farmers is a source of pride for us. We should promote it. Clean, delicious coffee is the backbone of snacks in our city. We promote it with great pride.. Recently heard that milk is being transported to Karnataka from other states.. We all use Nandini,” she said. This gave Amul a huge shock.
Former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has already demanded that the government take appropriate steps to protect Nandini and its products. Kannada people have been called upon to take a pledge not to buy Amul and only Nandini milk. Many Kannada organizations have called to oppose Amul and get ready to fight to save Nandini and save the honor of Karnataka. State Congress President Shivakumar said that Nandini is our pride and no one can steal it from us. Many Kanuda companies have announced that they will continue their struggle if Amul does not stop the supply of milk.
