Dr. Verghese Kurien on importance and success of Operation Flood: I suppose you are aware that when the National Dairy Development Board was created by the Govt. of India, the level of the Prime Minister. The brief given to the National Dairy Development Board was to replicate Anand throughout India. Now, unfortunately, however, the Govt. of India was in no position to give the funds to do this job. Therefore, the first problem of the Dairy board was how to raise the fund. It was at this time we came to know of the huge surpluses accumulated in Europe, of milk powder and butter.

Dr. Verghese Kurien was born on November 26, 1921 to an affluent Syrian Christian family in Calicut (now Kozhikode), Kerala. Looking at the struggle of these people to survive and mesmerized by the personality of their leader Tribhuvandas Patel who was trying to unite the farmers and form a cooperative movement against the exploitation, Dr. Kurien left his government job and joined forces with Tribhuvandas Patel and the farmers to start the Milk Cooperative movement in the region registered under the name of Kaira District Cooperative Milk Producers Union Ltd (KDCMPUL), which was later renamed to now popular "Amul".
