J&K Govt forgets to compensate rain, hailstorm affected Jammu farmers
12/25/2021 11:25:58 PM
Early Times Report

Jammu, Dec 25: Like other welfare schemes, compensation to the rain and hailstorm affected farmers of Jammu province was also confined only on papers and in the advertisements.
Two months have been passed after several thousand hectares of crops were destroyed in Jammu province due to heavy downpours and hailstorms in October.
Within days after rains and hailstorms, the J&K administration issued huge advertisements in different media to give a fake impression that the process of giving compensation to affected farmers was going on far-footing.
Like other schemes of the present dispensation which are only working on papers and advertisements, compensation claims are also confined in official handouts and tall claims in the media.
In November officers/officials of the concerned departments have almost completed the survey of the losses but those at the helm of the affairs have no time to release compensation for the poor farmers.
Instead of addressing grievances of the farmers at the village level, J&K authorities are busy giving the misleading message at the national level that farmers are very happy with the policies of the present regime.
“What to say of giving compensation to the common farmers, even those who have got their crops insured have yet not get compensation”, Sarpanch of Panchayat of R S Pura said.
On the condition of anonymity, the Sarpanch said that except survey nothing has been done so far. Fearing that authorities would start harassing him for speaking the truth, the Sarpanch urged not to reveal his identity.
Untimely rains and hailstorms had destroyed crops, other agricultural produce standing in fields in several thousand hectares.
In the plains of Jammu, paddy crops, particularly the Basmati varieties standing in thousands of hectares and vegetables got destroyed due to heavy rains and unprecedented hailstorms in R S Pura, Bishnah, Samba, Ramgarh, Marh, Kathua, and other areas of plains of Jammu.
