A 58-year-old woman named Bhuriya Bai from Madhya Pradesh died after standing in a long queue for two days to get fertiliser.
She was waiting at a distribution centre in Guna district.
Her family said she was there for two days, even staying overnight.
She suddenly became very sick and died.
The local government gave her family some money to help them.
A big leader in the government also said there should be an investigation to find out what happened and who was responsible.
Some people are asking why the queue was so long and if the system for giving out fertiliser is working properly.
