Nandini to Open Kiosks in Bengaluru Metro Stations
The Bengaluru Metro is going to have more shops!
Amul, a milk company, was already planning to open shops at metro stations.
Now, Nandini, another milk company, will also be opening shops at metro stations.
This decision was made by a government official after criticism.
This is because Nandini will operate in the remaining locations, with Amul already present in two.
The decision involves political aspects.
Nandini will open eight outlets at Bengaluru Metro stations.
BMRCL had an initial tender to which only Amul responded.
Amul already has two operational kiosks at Bengaluru Metro stations.
Deputy CM Shivakumar directed KMF to apply for the remaining eight locations.
The issue has taken on a political turn.
