Bishnupur: The All Manipur Youth Development Association has stated that the farmers are still deprived of the necessary materials despite the assurance made by Agriculture Minister to provide fertilisers and other required materials to farmers.
A press release issued by secretary of the association asserted that around 200 bags of fertilizers are being stockpiled in the Department godown without distribution despite the Minister’s frequent assurance.
It urged the State Government to look into the matter since the people are losing their trust and beliefs in the Government due to frequent negligence.
It further stated that depriving the farmers of the said materials at such an important time for plantation and agriculture will only result in further distrust towards the Government.
The association questioned the lack of responsibility on the part of the Government in providing items related to farming like fertilisers, pumps, chemicals etc to the farmers at the right time.
