Digvijay Singh said, “From 1993 to 2003, there was a Congress party government, during that time farmers did not have to face any problem for fertilizers and not even a single sack of fertilizer was black marketed. Today, cases of black marketing of fertilizers and fake fertilizers are increasing.”
