Rajasthan: Rajasthan Agriculture Minister Dr. Kirori Lal Meena took action by conducting a surprise inspection of 9 factories in Sriganganagar on Tuesday, June 3. This action created a stir in the area. During the inspection, 8 factories were sealed. The minister said that these factories were supplying fake seeds to the farmers, which is affecting their crops.
Meena, along with a team of officials and experts, visited the factories and also checked the quality of the seeds stored there. In the investigation conducted by the experts, these seeds were found to be fake.
Kirori Lal Meena said, “This is a fraud with the farmers. Farmers buy seeds trusting these brands, but these seeds do not give the expected production.”
He said that a large quantity of fake seeds have been seized. This is a well-planned conspiracy, which is affecting both the hard work and financial condition of the farmers.

This activism of the minister is being considered a concrete step towards protecting the interests of the farmers.
