She also instructed all field-level police officers to exhibit zero tolerance against offenders involved in the production, distribution, and sale of spurious seeds by booking cases under the PD Act.
Advising farmers to buy only seeds certified by agriculture department officials, she also
said that special task force teams have been appointed in coordination with agriculture officials in the district. These teams are tasked with surprise checks in fertilizers shops and seed manufacturing units.
