Organised milk producers of West Bengal on Friday said they are facing no disruption in supplies because of the lockdown, but individual cattle owners find themselves in distress situation because of suspension of train services.

Some of the big organised players like Mother Dairy (Delhi), Keventer Agro and the state animal resources department are maintaining their supply levels as before, various sources said
"We are trying to maintain the production and supply at earlier levels and there is no disruption as such. Rather, we are aiming at raising production volumes but are constrained due to lack of manpower," Animal Resources Department minister Swapan Debnath told PTI
ITC, a relatively new entrant in the pouch milk market, said "It will ensure continued supply in Kolkata and Bihar despite all challenges."
