Spurious DAP seized in Mansa, firm booked
The FIR was lodged against the dealer under Fertiliser Control Order, 1985, and the Essential Commodities Act, 1955, and the entire stock was seized.
The MANSA police booked Victory Biotech Private Limited after they seized spurious DAP from a Sardulgarh-based godown. The company had 705 bags (each bag weighing 50 kg) of DAP under the name of Bio DAP while the company had no details of this product in the letter of acknowledgement (LoA), according to Dr Manjit Singh, chief agriculture officer, Mansa.
The LoA had details of 950 DAP bags stored in that godown but not of Bio DAP. On Sunday, 705 were left. Hence, agriculture department officials indicated that stock kept was not approved by department and dealer had not even got it tested. So it was termed spurious.
The FIR was lodged against the dealer under Fertiliser Control Order, 1985, and the Essential Commodities Act, 1955, and the entire stock was seized.
