A worsening urea shortage has triggered protests across Telangana, with farmers storming warehouses, blocking highways and staging sit-ins. The State blames the Centre for failing to supply promised stocks, while farmers warn of crop losses and allege black marketing of fertilizer
Farmers in Siddipet’s Alwal village locked agriculture officials inside the Rythu Vedika after waiting for hours to buy urea fertiliser. Police intervened to secure their release, but shortages persisted, reflecting growing unrest across Medak district amid inadequate stocks
Farmers in Gajwel, led by BRS leaders, blocked Rajiv Rahadhari over urea shortage, demanding restoration of the rake point for fertiliser supply, causing traffic disruption and accusing the government of neglect.
