Farmers in several districts of Telangana are facing difficulties in accessing urea for the ongoing Kharif season. In Bheemini, in Mancherial district, farmers gathered at the local Primary Agriculture Cooperative Society for three days, requesting the timely supply of urea. When the society failed to meet its needs, they staged a protest and demanded intervention from officials.
Following the protest, the society temporarily halted distribution of the remaining stock. Farmers alleged that private traders had sufficient urea and were selling it on the black market. Agriculture officials responded by assuring strict action against any trader found selling urea illegally.
