The Rajasthan government keeps on making announcements every day in the interest of farmers. This time the government has come up with a scheme for those farmers whose crops were badly damaged due to last year’s floods and drought. As per the announcement of the government, a relief amount will be provided to such farmers.
Let us tell you that during the Kharif season in the year 2021 in Rajasthan, there was 33% or more crop loss in 6 thousand 122 villages of 10 districts. For this, the government has approved an amount of Rs 175 crore to give compensation to the farmers. Out of these, approval has been issued for distribution of payment to 1 lakh 84 thousand 682 farmers among the affected farmers.
The special feature of this scheme is that this relief amount will be given by the government to all those farmers whose crops were damaged, even if those farmers do not have crop insurance. At present, according to the data of the Rajasthan government, 70 lakh 58 thousand farmers are still left, who are yet to give relief. The government is engaged in the process of completing it so that the compensation for the loss of all the farmers of the state can be completed at the earliest.
