Read the passage carefully:
1. Dr Varghese Kurien, the AMUL(Anand Milk Union Limited) man, was the visionary Administrator who spearheaded the Dairy Cooperative Movement and made Operation Flood a runway success. By building India's dairy industry, he achieved recognition for himself and brought glory to the country.
2. The beginning of AMUL can be traced to 1949, when Dr Kurien took a job at Anand in Gujarat to organise milk production and all that it involved. He took over an existing dairy cooperative run by Shri T. Patel, and mobilised milk-producers cooperatives. He totally changed the concept of dairying. He introduced innovatives like having a network of veterinary services and cattle breeding centres. Sixteen years later, he became the head of the National Dairy Development Board, to develop and relocate the 'Anand Pattern' all over the country.
3. Then came 'Operation Flood' in 1970, involving nearly 170 million people. It is the world's biggest dairy development programme.
4. Under its aegis, six million dairy owners in 1,75,000 village cooperatives,produce,process and market milk to 500 cities and towns throughout India. The programme has helped stabilise milk prices, reduce India's dependence on milk imports, ensure the supply of hygienic milk and provide a source of regular income to small farmers and others. Operation Flood has now expanded to include fruits, vegetables and oilseeds.
