As the phase-1 of the ambitious National Dairy Plan (NDP-1) comes to an end this November, the National Dairy Development Board (NDDB) has initiated talks with the World Bank and the government departments concerned to go ahead with the second phase of the Plan.
While the first phase was launched in 2012 with an outlay of ₹2,242 crore, the second phase will have a projected financial outlay of about ₹8,000 crore.
