On the 14th Commemoration Day of Dr. Verghese Kurien, Amul Dairy pays tribute to the visionary whose transformative leadership turned every drop of milk into a symbol of empowerment and elevated millions of milk producers into architects of India’s dairy revolution. Dr. Jayen Mehta, MD, Gujarat Cooperative Milk Marketing Federation (Amul), and Dr. Amit Vyas, MD, Amul Dairy, along with senior officials from Amul Dairy and GCMMF, offered floral tributes to the “Milkman of India”, honouring a life devoted to farmer ownership, cooperative excellence, and the transformative power of collective action. From every village milk collection centre to every household that places its trust in Amul, Dr. Kurien’s vision continues to thrive, not merely as a cherished legacy, but as a living movement that continues to inspire generations. His greatest achievement was not simply what he built, but the millions he empowered to build it with him.
