Border farmers devastated, no relief package by Govt: Harsh | | | Early Times Report vijaypur, Dec 25: Seeking early announcement of compensation to the border area farmers for massive losses caused to crops due to untimely rains, Harsh Dev Singh, Chairman-JKNPP & former Minister regretted that despite huge devastation of paddy as well as the agricultural fields, the govt. had failed to announce any relief package. He said that paddy growers had suffered unimaginable damages to their standing crops due to vagaries of weather which needed immediate attention of the government. He said that even where harvesting had been done, massive water logging had buried the produce with the farmers left high and dry. He regretted that non extension of 'PM Fasal Bima Yojana' by the Union Territory govt. had further added to the woes of the affected farmers reeling under distress. He further deplored the highly indifferent and apathetic approach of the administration who had failed to pay even a visit to the affected areas to take stock of the situation and to assess the losses sustained by farmers. He was addressing public meetings in Awtal and Nanga Panchayats of Ramgarh Tehsil after touring several border villages of Vijaypur Constituency today alongwith Yash Paul Kundal, Ex-Minister and Youth President of the Party. |
