We have never supplied Amul ghee to Tirupati Temple : Amul’s Clarification

Amul has also issued a clarification regarding this matter. The company stated that rumours are circulating on social media claim that Amul ghee was being supplied to Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanam.

Amul clarified, “We have never supplied Amul ghee to TTD. Amul ghee is made from milk at our state-of-the-art production facilities, which are ISO certified. Amul ghee is made from high-quality, pure milk fat.”

Contracts with five ghee suppliers cancelled

TTD has terminated its contracts with five ghee suppliers. These include Premier Agri Foods, Kriparam Dairy, Vaishnavi, Shri Parag Milk, and AR Dairy. Among them, only AR Dairy’s ghee was found to contain beef-derived fat. Following this discovery, the temple has entered into a new contract with the Karnataka Co-operative Milk Federation, which had supplied ghee to the temple for several years. The previous contract was discontinued because the price of their ghee was higher.
