Know what is the matter
Let us tell you that during the SP government, a cow milk plant was built on about 8 acres of land in Badhanpur Veerhar of Tirwa area of Kannauj. This plant was completed in 2018 at a cost of about Rs 140 crore. PM Modi had started it by inaugurating it in the year 2019. Machines were also imported from Germany and Japan for this plant. Modern machines were installed here, through which milk can be stored for six months.
This plant has the capacity to store one lakh liters of milk per day, which is more than any other plant in the state. This plant was closed after a few days because of budget problems due to lack of management. It is being told that due to the closure of this plant, farmers of about 15 districts have suffered losses. Along with this, hundreds of people also lost their jobs. Now farmers are forced to sell milk at throwaway prices.
