Most of the damage in the chilli crop is due to the twisting of leaves, which is known as Kukda or Churda-Murda disease in different places. Due to which the leaves of chilli are twisted, this problem is due to the outbreak of thrips in the chilli crop, due to which the leaves of chillies turn upwards and become boat-shaped. Leaves shrink. The plant looks like a bush. Affected plants do not produce fruit. On seeing the symptoms, uproot the affected plant from the field. Keep the field free from weeds.
