Local milk producers in Himachal will be entrusted with the work of running bulk milk coolers and for this, the government will give them commission, Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu told the Assembly on Tuesday.
He was intervening in the matter raised by Anni MLA Lokendra Kumar about the "wastage of thousands of litres of milk due to a technical fault in the milk chilling plant" in his constituency.

In the original reply to the question, Agriculture Minister Chandra Kumar said that information was received about a sudden technical fault in the milk cooler but later it was found that there was no fault.
"There was no voltage due to the single line of the Electricity Board and as a result milk got spoiled and its quality deteriorated," he said.
