The milk producers union in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar is under scrutiny as several member societies call for the dissolution of its management committee. Allegations of financial irregularities and governance lapses have prompted this demand for change.

Seventeen cooperative societies submitted a memorandum to Maharashtra's Animal Husbandry Minister, Atul Save, highlighting their concerns over mismanagement at the union. Specific allegations include the non-deposit of Rs 32 lakh in rent from milk outlets and a pending recovery of Rs 10 lakh from a multinational company since 2021.

The societies suggest that transferring the union's management to the National Dairy Development Board (NDDB) would ensure transparency and accountability in future operations.
