Where to complain about substandard seeds, adulterated fertilizers, or overcharging?

Selling fertilizers above Maximum Retail Price (MRP), black-marketing urea, distributing spurious seeds, or refusing purchase receipts is strictly prohibited under the Fertilizer Control Order.

How to report violations:

  • Uzhavan Mobile App: Use the 'Grievance Redressal' tab for instant complaint filing.
  • Kisan Call Centre: Dial 1800-180-1551 (Toll-free 24/7).
  • State Agricultural Control Room: Call 044-28583737.
  • District Level: Submit a written complaint to the Joint Director of Agriculture (JDA) or Assistant Director (Quality Control) at the District Collectorate.

Important advice:

  • Always insist on a printed GST cash invoice from the merchant mentioning batch number and price. Keep this receipt as proof for legal action.
