The correct answer is Dr. Verghese Kurien.

Dr. Verghese Kurien is widely recognized as the “Father of the White Revolution in India” for his pivotal role in launching and leading “Operation Flood”, the world’s largest dairy development program.

Operation Flood transformed India from a milk-deficient nation into the world’s largest milk producer. Lal Bahadur Shastri was the Prime Minister who encouraged the milk cooperative movement and supported Kurien’s work. Dr. Amrita Patel is a prominent figure in India’s dairy cooperative sector and a former chairperson of NDDB. Maulana Abul Kalam Azad was a prominent freedom fighter and India’s first Minister of Education, not directly related to the White Revolution.
