In a first for Kashmir, a milk ATM was installed in Pulwama town of South Kashmir by a local businessman with the help of the animal husbandry department. The government has helped Shabir Ahmad Wagay under the Integrated Dairy Development Scheme (IDDS) to set this ATM up. The machine will help locals in the town to get quality milk at their will like any other money ATM. It has been installed in the main town Pulwama near Rajpora Chowk and would function round the clock in the town so that no shortage of milk is faced by the locals. “Pulwama is the leading district in milk production in the valley. So, we were looking for having better facilities in the town. Such installations of milk ATMs will ensure that local people face no difficulty in getting quality milk anytime they want”, said a local animal husbandry official.
