BADIN, Aug 2: The district coordination officer on Saturday warned fertiliser dealers that they would have to face punitive action if they failed to declare their stocks.

He said in an official handout that the district administration was cracking down on black-marketing and hoarding under the directives of National Assembly Speaker Dr Fehmida Mirza.

The speaker took serious notice of fertiliser’s shortage in the district during a recent visit and ensured additional quota of fertiliser for Badin.
