| BJP MLAs ask for early supply of fertilizers | | | Early Times Report Jammu, Nov 21- Prof. Gharu Ram Bhagat and Ch. Shyam, BJP MLAs from R.S. Pura and Suchetgarh constituency respectively, have once again urged the State government, Agriculture Department in particular, to take immediate and effective steps to make available fertilizers and seeds to the farmers of Jammu province.
The MLAs who were in BJP Office today in connection with their weekly sitting for hearing the grievances of the public, met with a number of people, majority of them the farmers from different areas of Jammu, said that they have been receiving regular complaints of non-availability of fertilizers and seeds. They said it is not for the first time that the farmers are being made to suffer due to non-availability of timely and adequate essential agricultural inputs. Every year, when it is the sowing season, the farmers have to move from one outlet to other in search of fertilizers and seeds. Every time the farmers are made to satisfy by hollow promises while the ground realities are altogether different. They said that the farmers are now fully aware of the latest agricultural techniques and advancement in the field, however they cannot avail the benefits of such technology in absence of adequate and timely agriculture related modern inputs.
The BJP legislators urged the minister concerned to personally intervene in the matter and direct the concerned agencies to ensure that the farmers are not made to suffer any more as their survival is totally dependent on produce from the agricultural land.
