Hyderabad: Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy urged Union Minister for Fertilizers and Chemicals, JP Nadda to supply urea allocated to Telangana on time to meet the demand during farming seasons. He met the Union Minister in New Delhi on Tuesday.
Telangana received only 3.07 lakh metric tonnes of urea between April and June compared to the five lakh metric tonnes in the Kharif season. Similarly, 63,000 metric tonnes of domestically produced urea and 97,000 metric tonnes of imported urea were to be supplied to Telangana in July but only 29,000 metric tonnes of urea has been supplied so far, he said, requesting Nadda to enhance the quota of domestically produced urea for Telangana and increase the number of rakes for urea supply as Railways was reluctant in considering the demand for more rakes.

He appealed to Piyush Goyal to immediately release Rs.596.61 crore approved by the National Industrial Corridor Development and Implementation Trust (NICDIT) for the development of Zaheerabad Industrial Smart City.
