He said that 140 wagons of urea were supplied to the State last month but eight wagons from it were still lying at the Bhopal railway station.

Agrawal said that BJP Government in MP was shifting blame on the Centre for its failure to fetch fertilisers to the farmers in adequate quantity and said it should rather correct its supply system to overcome fertiliser crisis gripping large parts of the State.
