TTD decided not to use Nandini Ghee for Tirupati laddus

In a big decision affecting millions of Tirupati pilgrims, the Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD) has decided not to use Nandini ghee manufactured by Karnataka Milk Federation (KMF) in the preparation of Tirupati laddus. TTD decided not to use Nandini ghee for Tirupati laddus.

The Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanam (TTD) has given the ghee tender to a different company after the price hike of Nandini milk products. Speaking with the reporters at Ballari, Nayak said, “As we announced a hike in the milk price from August 1, the ghee prices will also go up.

The TTD has found a new company which provides them ghee to make Tirupati Laddus at a cheaper price. So, after many years, we had to stop the supply of Nandini ghee to TTD.” He also said that the ghee of Nandini is made of global standards and other brand ghee cannot match its quality. “I think that the laddus will not be the same anymore.

I can also assure that Nandini provides the best ghee in the market and goes through all quality checks. If any brand is supplying ghee for a lesser price than Nandini, I assume that the quality will be compromised,” the KMF president said. Nandini is reportedly supplying ghee to make Tirupati laddus for over 50 years now.
