The annual general meeting (AGM) of the Gokul Milk Dairy held in Kolhapur ended in just three minutes Sunday due to fracas over expansion of business in states other than Maharashtra.
The business expansion issue was on the agenda of the AGM of the Kolhapur District Milk Producers Cooperative Society (KDMPCS) which sells milk by brand name Gokul, sources said.
Leaders including former minister Satej Patil and Hasan Mushrif are opposing the proposal alleging that it was being pushed for the personal benefits of a political family.
During the meeting, it was announced that the proposal was accepted by voice vote. However, those opposing it disagreed and a scuffle ensued during which shoes and chairs were hurled.
The KDMPCS was founded in 1963. It currently has 3659 members.
