A new milk ATM system in Munnar, Kerala allows customers to purchase fresh milk 24/7. The machine dispenses milk based on the amount of money inserted, offering a convenient solution for consumers. The initiative, supported by the Dairy Development Department, aims to provide accessible and readily available milk to the community.
A unique ATM system is now available in the Idduki district of Munnar, Kerala. You can purchase milk using this system by placing your container and paying for the desired quantity. The machine will then dispense the milk according to the amount you paid. This milk ATM, introduced in Munnar by the Lakshmi Dairy Cooperative Society in the Devikulam block, allows consumers to buy milk anytime, based on their convenience. The district’s first 24-hour milk vending machine was inaugurated in Munnar by Dairy Development and Animal Husbandry Minister J Chinchu.
Vending machine for milk
Milk will be available 24 hours in day, and you can get it based on the amount of money inserted into the machine. By inserting 10, 20, 50, or 100 rupee notes, placing a bottle or vessel, and pressing the button, you'll receive milk equivalent to the amount of money used.
A machine with a 200-liter storage capacity has been installed for this purpose. The goal is to supply up to 1,000 litres of milk daily. The Dairy Development Department has provided Rs 120,000 in financial support for this scheme, which costs over Rs 4 lakh.
Inauguration
The inauguration ceremony was attended by Devikulam MLA Advocate A Raja, President of Macchippalaav Dairy Cooperative Society Paul Mathew, President of KSEMSA District KP Baby, President of Pandipara Dairy Cooperative Society Soni Cholamatham, Joint Director of Dairy Development Department Shalini Gopinath, Deputy Director Dr Dolas PE, Quality Control Officer Anju Kurian, and Dairy Development Officer Jasmine CA Adi.
