Kerala High Court Reinstates Milma Board Dissolved over Sabarimala Ghee Distribution Controversy
The court said the government had no basis to dissolve the union board and ordered immediate reinstatement after the Sabarimala ghee dispute.
- On Wednesday, the Kerala High Court Division Bench quashed the state order dissolving the Thiruvananthapuram Regional Co-operative Milk Producers Union board, directing its immediate reinstatement.
- The board was dissolved on July 25, citing misappropriation allegations regarding ghee supplied to Sabarimala, a decision that a Single Bench had previously upheld.
- Justices Jayasankaran Nambiar and Preetha ruled the Registrar's order lacked required rationale and failed to consult the State Co-operative Union, violating established fair procedure.
- The reinstated committee will now replace the government-appointed Administrator, as the court invalidated the order that removed the democratically elected Thiruvananthapuram Union.
- Milma Chairman Mani defended product quality, stating, "The ghee was packed in fully sealed 15-kg tins," effectively dismissing alteration claims.
