Bangalore: The Kochimool Trust has inaugurated a new hostel in Bhoopasandra, Bangalore, dedicated to the children of dairy farmers from Kolar and Chikkaballapur districts. This initiative aims to support the education of farmers' children and promote the dairy industry.
Hostel Inauguration and Future Plans
The new hostel has been set up in a Karnataka Milk Federation (KMF) building, provided rent-free for this purpose. MLA K. Y. Nanjegowda, president of the Kochimool Trust and MLA of Malaru, announced that a new building for the hostel would soon be constructed.
During the inauguration ceremony, Nanjegowda expressed gratitude for KMF's ongoing support, highlighting that the current government facilitated the hostel's registration after a delay due to an administrative change. He assured that the construction of a new hostel building would begin soon.
New Facilities for Dairy Farmers' Children
The Kochimool Trust's efforts have been widely praised, including providing rent-free accommodation. The new hostel will offer various facilities, including educational subsidies and equipment for dairy farming. Nanjegowda also mentioned that during his tenure, the Kolar-Chikkaballapur Union has implemented several successful schemes for dairy farmers, including livestock insurance and subsidies for farming tools.
Other Important Projects
In addition to the hostel, Nanjegowda outlined other significant initiatives such as the Golden Dairy in Kolar, Mega Dairy in Chikkaballapur, an ice cream unit in Chintamani, and a solar unit near Holali in Kolar. He assured that the union would continue to strengthen and support dairy cooperatives in these districts.
