Fri May 09 14:57:13 UTC 2025: ## Royal Intervention Ensures Timely Fertilizer Supply for Karnataka Tobacco Farmers
**Mysuru, May 9, 2025** – Yaduveer Krishnadatta Chamaraja Wadiyar, the titular Maharaja of Mysore, has intervened to ensure a timely supply of fertilizers to tobacco farmers in Karnataka’s Hunsur and Periyapatna taluks. Following concerns about potential shortages, Mr. Wadiyar instructed officials to guarantee uninterrupted fertilizer availability, particularly directing them to arrange for Sunday deliveries for the farmers’ convenience. This action follows Mr. Wadiyar’s earlier advocacy in Parliament for tobacco growers, including efforts to mitigate penalties imposed on them. The intervention aims to prevent any disruption to the tobacco harvest and alleviate hardship for farmers in the region.
