Warangal: Farmers in the district have started facing trouble again in getting urea required for Yasangi crops as they were forced to wait in the biting cold in queues.
It might be noted that the farmers in Mahabubabad, Warangal, Janagaon, Mulugu and other parts of erstwhile Warangal faced severe shortage of urea in Vanakalam season and were forced to stage protests for urea.
Now the same problem is being faced by farmers in mandals like Narsimhulapet, Maripeda, Kesamudram, Narsampet, Chennaraopet, Dharmasagar, Kamalapur and other even before agricultural activities started full in the yasangi season.
In an incident farmers waited since early hours on Friday in the freezing cold for urea at the PACS at Mahabubabad district headquarters. As the society officials failed to supply urea, angry farmers staged a protest on the Mahabubabad-Thorrur main road demanding the supply of urea.
Many farmers stated that as long as the former Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao was in power they never had to take to the streets for urea. Now, even after waiting in the cold at midnight, the officials were sending farmers away advising them to come back the next day.
Late in the day, a notice was displayed on the PACS wall by the officials informing the farmers that there would be no urea distribution at the society suggesting them not to come to the society office for urea.
The farmers were complaining that they have been going to PACS and Agros centres for the past week for urea braving the cold and wrapping themselves in blankets, hoping to receive tokens. But the officials were not supplying urea required by the farmers due to shortage of stocks.
