AAP alleges fertiliser shortage in U.P. cooperative societies
The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) on Sunday raised concerns over the shortage of DAP and urea fertilisers in more than half of the cooperative societies across Uttar Pradesh. Vanshraj Dubey, the AAP's spokesperson for Uttar Pradesh, flayed the state government for its 'failure to address the issue'. He alleged that the government's inaction was a clear example of its anti-farmer stance.
'More than 50% of cooperative societies in the state are facing a severe shortage of DAP and urea fertilisers,' Dubey claimed while talking to media persons. 'The government has failed to take adequate measures to address the crisis, despite repeated complaints from farmers,' he alleged.
The party has demanded immediate review of fertiliser supply, action against responsible officials and transparent distribution of fertilisers.
