JKPCC expresses concern over loss of life, property due to rains | | | EARLY TIMES REPORT
JAMMU, Oct 25: Jammu and Kashmir Pradesh Congress Committee (JKPCC) has expressed concern over the loss of lives and huge damage to crops due to unprecedented and unseasonal rains/hailstorm in Jammu and Kashmir and demanded adequate ex-gratia relief to the victims and farmers and orchardists. Chief Spokesperson JKPCC Ravinder Sharma (ex-MLC) has expressed grave shock over the loss of precious lives and shared the grief of the victim families. He sought immediate ex-gratia relief to the families. He said that the farmers and orchardists have suffered immense loss to their crops and produce due to unprecedented and unseasonal rains/hail storm & snow that have lashed the entire UT of Jammu and Kashmir. He said that the standing paddy crops, vegetables and fruits have been totally destroyed by the incessant rains and hailstorm in several areas. This tragedy of destruction of crops has come on the farmers at a time when they are already reeling under serious crisis on account of very high prices of petrol, diesel, fertilizers, seeds etc. Sharma demanded that the administration should wake up to the situation and immediately provide adequate ex-gratia relief before total estimation of the losses suffered by the farmers is made. |
