Farmers’ unions protest in Kozhikode against dissolution of Malabar Milma board

Pro-Left farmers’ organisations staged separate protests in Kozhikode against the dissolution of the board of the Malabar Regional Cooperative Milk Producers’ Union (MRCMPU), popularly known as Malabar Milma, even as its annual general body meeting was held in the city on Wednesday (September 23, 2026).

The Dairy Development Director recently issued an order dissolving the MRCMPU, the regional union under the Kerala Co-operative Milk Marketing Federation (Milma). The Deputy Director of Dairy Development in Wayanad has been appointed its administrator. There are three regional unions under Milma in Keralam. The Thiruvananthapuram union was also dissolved sometime ago.
