| Tarigami demands rollback of fertilizer price hike | | | early times report
Jammu, Mar 2: Expressing anguish over the steep hike in fertilizers prices, Jammu and Kashmir unit of CPI(M) today demanded an immediate roll back. "We express deep anguish over the steep hike in prices of fertilizers. We demand its immediate roll back", State Secretary and Moham-mad Yousuf Tarigami said today. He said the sudden and unexpected increase in the fertilizer prices will have a detrimental impact on farmers of the state, who he said were eking out their living from the small land holdings that too under the constant threat of vagaries of weather. He said that price hike in the MOP fertiliser rates from Rs 550 to 1200 per quintal and from Rs 1260 to over 1900 in respect of DAP fertiliser has come as a bolt from blue to the farmers, who were readying themselves for sowing rabi crops. The increase in the diesel oil has equally marred the interests of the peasants, he added. He said agricultural activities will receive a severe jolt in Jammu and Kashmir if prices are not controlled on time. |
