The local farmers have protested against the shortage of the DAP fertilisers, as the local district administration still remains unable to control the sale of DAP and Urea fertilisers in black in both neighbouring Sialkot and Narowal districts, besides, remaining allegedly failure in curbing the menace of artificial shortage of fertilisers.
Talking to the newsmen, here on Sunday, the farmers said that the dealers and stockists have increased the rates of DAP fertilisers and selling the same at enhanced rate of Rs 1,380 per bag instead of Rs 665 in both Sialkot and Narowal districts.
They protesting farmers and growers have said that these dealers and stockists were exploiting poor farmers who had borrowed the Urea fertilisers due to their financial crisis before this hike per bag at the rate of fertilisers in Sialkot, Daska, Bhopalwala, Sambrial, Uggoki, Satrah, Pasrur, Chawinda, Badiana, Shakargarh, Zafarwal, Kot Nainaan, Baddo Malhi, Noor Kot, Narowal and surrounding urban and rural areas.
Meanwhile, Citizens' Rights Protection Forum Chairman Dr Muneer Butt has expressed grave concern over this hike in the prices of Urea prices and urged the local district government to take serious notice of this critical situation.
