Later, however, Amul could operate its account without any restrictions. “We have asked Twitter why we were not taken into confidence before putting such restriction. They should have intimated us,” said R S Sodhi, managing director of GCMMF, a $5.1 billion co-operative. Twitter is yet to respond to Amul.
