Amul managing director R S Sodhi on Saturday hit back at People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) India for suggesting Amul should switch over to producing vegan milk instead of dairy milk.

Sharing a media report on PETA’s recommendation, R S Sodhi asked if the animal rights organization will provide livelihood to “100 million landless dairy farmers”.

Taking to Twitter, Sodhi asked, “Will they give livelihood to 100 million dairy farmers (70% landless), who will pay for children school fee.. how many  can afford expensive lab manufactured factory food made out of chemicals … And synthetic vitamins?”
