In a statement, Amul addressed social media rumours that claimed the company had been providing ghee to the temple. “We wish to clarify that Amul has never supplied ghee to TTD,” the company said, further stating that their ghee is produced from high-quality milk in ISO-certified facilities.

Amul refuted social media claims of supplying ghee to Tirupati Temple, calling it misinformation. The dairy giant clarified that its ghee is made from pure milk fat and undergoes stringent quality checks,
