Bhopal, Aug. 1 -- Members of the Congress Legislature Party today staged a demonstration on the Madhya Pradesh Assembly premises carrying empty sacks of fertiliser and symbolic nano fertiliser bottles while alleging a fertiliser crisis in the state.
Leader of Opposition Umang Singhar and other MLAs raised questions regarding the government's agriculture-related policies.
"Lakhs of peasants are queuing up for fertiliser but the dispensation is sitting with eyes closed. The monsoon is also underway. The ryot is vexed over spurious fertiliser. Instead of providing relief to cultivators, the government is playing with them through the medium of experiments such as nano fertiliser," Singhar alleged.
