Amar Chitra Katha Vol. 845 Verghese Kurien Hindi
Nimmy Chacko
Age (years) : 6 - 99
Verghese Kurien's life changed drastically when he arrived at the dusty platform in Anand, Gujarat on May 13, 1949. Little did he know that he was about to change the destiny of thousands of small, marginalized farmers who had suffered from exploitation and deprivation for years. Dr. Kurien's life is intertwined with the story of Amul and the 'billion-liter idea' of Operation Flood, which catapulted India to the top of the world map for milk production. As a dedicated patriot, Kurien was devoted to the co-operative cause and believed in putting the milk industry in the hands of the farmers. He firmly believed that with ownership would come responsibility and success, and he was proven right. The Amar Chitra Katha recounts the story of this man, who is renowned as the 'Father of the White Revolution'.
