The government has implemented a strategy to use e-way bill data to monitor subsidised fertiliser movement. Concerns over fertiliser supply due to the Iran war have prompted the Finance Ministry's analysis of trucking routes. Reports of route deviations and illegal unloading emphasize the significance of tracking fertiliser distribution. Increased enforcement has resulted in thousands of raids and notices against violators across India.
