    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the issue of fertilizer was among the first Question which was discussed by this Tenth Parliament. The written answer, which the Assistant Minister has given, clearly shows that the Government is not serious in as far as the issue of fertilizer is concerned. It can also show that the Ministry itself is not in a position to deal with the issue of fertilizer. In his answer, the Assistant Minister says:- \"My Ministry has authorised the NCPB to get into the fertilizer market, so as to stabilise the prices\". Who does not know that the NCPB is not a stable organisation? The Government is authorising a Board that is not stable to get into the fertilizer market and stabilise prices. This Board collects maize from farmers and it does not pay them and then the Government is telling us that it is the solution to the farmers' problems. Why can the Government not give direct subsidies to the farmers?"
