- AMITAVA BANERJEE

DARJEELING: The Bengal government has constituted state and district-level task forces to implement the ban on the use of hazardous insecticides and pesticides in the tea industry. This is to ensure the safety and quality of tea produced in Bengal.

This was announced by a Gazette Notification No. LABR/134/T&J dated April 4, 2025 to ensure the prohibition of the sale, distribution and use of banned pesticides in tea cultivation, processing and trading.

The State Level Task Force will be headed by the Secretary of the Labour department, with the Labour Commissioner acting as the convenor. Other members include senior officials from the Health & Family Welfare Department, Agriculture Department, and North Bengal police administration. The task force is mandated to meet quarterly to review enforcement actions and provide policy guidance to the district-level bodies.
