Farmers block Mahabubabad to Thorrur road 'Urea Shortage'

Tension prevailed in Mahabubabad district headquarters on Thursday, December 25, as farmers staged a protest over the delay in urea distribution, blocking the Mahabubabad–Thorrur main road and bringing traffic to a complete standstill.

According to farmers, several of them had gathered at the Primary Agricultural Cooperative Society (PACS) office from Wednesday night, waiting for



urea. 

With no clarity on distribution, they spent the cold night outside the office, placing their footwear in queue lines to mark their turn and warming themselves by bonfires.

The situation escalated in the morning when the farmers staged a sit-in protest on the main road, raising slogans against the government and officials. Vehicles were stranded on both sides of the road for several hours due to the blockade.
