Hyderabad: Telangana ke Siddipet district ke Kadavergu gaon mein Sunday ko ek fraud pesticide sale ka mamla saamne aaya jab do shakhs bill maangne par bina number plate wali car mein bhag gaye. Yeh ghatna ongoing farming season ke dauraan rural markets mein unverified agricultural chemicals ke bebasaraf bechne par sawal khade karti hai.
Gaon walon ke mutabiq, yeh log car mein aaye aur village junction ke paas market rate se kam daam par insecticides bechne lage. Paddy transplantation, cotton aur sabziyon ki kheti ke chalte kai kisano ne pesticides kharidna chaha. Jab kuch logon ne bill maanga, toh yeh shakhs foran car mein baith kar bhaag gaye.
Kisano ka shak hai ke yeh log fake pesticide bech rahe the, jo seasonal demand ka faida uthane aaye the. Ek farmer ne kaha, “Itne kam daam mein asli product bechna mumkin nahi—zaroor milawati hoga.” Gawahiyon ke mutabiq, bottles par koi brand label ya verified source nahi tha.
Local farmers ne agriculture department se demand ki hai ke aise illegal sales ke khilaf turant action liya jaye, taake farzi aur harmful pesticide ka phelav roka ja sake. Abhi tak kisi authority ki taraf se response nahi aaya hai.
