Our Assessment

The declaration promised a crackdown on spurious seeds and pesticides, with perpetrators to be booked under the Preventive Detention Act and their assets seized to compensate affected farmers. No approved-source evidence was found of a systematic enforcement drive invoking the PD Act against spurious-input suppliers or of asset seizures used to compensate farmers. Absent such evidence, the verdict is pending. Budget: not applicable; no approved-source allocation evidence was found.
