The Indore district administration in Madhya Pradesh has imposed fines of Rs 16.7 lakh on 770 farmers for allegedly burning stubble, an official said on Wednesday.
Farmer organisations have objected to the action, demanding alternative arrangements.
“We are taking strict action under the rules and regulations against those who burn stubble in the fields,” Indore Collector Ashish Singh told reporters.
