Dispute Between Farmers And Traders Halts Crop Auction
Agar (Madhya Pradesh): A heated dispute erupted between farmers and traders at the agricultural produce market in Agar on Thursday, bringing the auction process to a standstill. The altercation began when farmer Mukesh Yadav accused a trader of unfair practices, including repeatedly emptying his trolley and allegedly manhandling him.
The situation escalated quickly, with a large number of farmers gathering to close the market gate and halt the auction proceedings. Some farmers even blocked the road at Cantonment Naka, causing a temporary traffic jam. Authorities swiftly intervened, with additional SP Nisha Reddy and deputy collector Sarvesh Yadav arriving at Cantonment Naka to resolve the situation.
After about 20 minutes, the roadblock was cleared, and the auction resumed. Currently, the auction work remains suspended as farmers are demanding an apology from the trader and the cancellation of his licence. Market administrators are actively engaged in efforts to reconcile the conflicting parties and restore normalcy to the market.
