Farmer leader Vishnu Patel said growers face severe fertiliser shortages during a crucial crop stage. He claimed officials failed to supply urea on time. Patel alleged black marketing with official support. He accused authorities of diverting fertiliser meant for farmers. He said those responsible “enjoy sweets” while crops suffer in fields.

After the protest, farmers submitted a memorandum to the agriculture officer. They demanded timely fertiliser supply based on crop requirements. Farmers warned that delays could destroy standing crops. Many said they stood in long queues but returned empty-handed. Udaipur, like several parts of Rajasthan, continues to face fertiliser scarcity.

Tension rose during the protest when police intervened. Officers removed the donkeys from the protest site. Police accused farmers of mistreating animals. Farmers argued the act was symbolic and peaceful. The verbal exchange did not stop the demonstration.

Videos of the protest quickly went viral on social media. The incident has highlighted farmer frustration over fertiliser shortages across the state.
