EARLY TIMES REPORT
JAMMU, Oct 23: Vice President JKPCC Mula Ram and President DCC Rural Hari Singh Chib, on Thursday expressed concern over the loss of paddy crops and property in several areas of Jammu and Kashmir, asking administration to immediately engage men and machinery in assess the losses.
In a statement issued today, Mula Ram, Hari Singh and Uday Bhanu Chib, President J&K PYC said that recent rains have damaged the standing crops and the government must depute teams to assess the losses immediately and apparently compensate the affecting farmers.
They expressed grave concern over the loss of crop production of farmers and other public property at several places due to the incessant rains.
The senior Congress leaders appealed to the LG administration to issue directions to the concerned authorities to assess the loss and provide immediate compensation to farmers who have lost their production besides compensating other affected people. “Agriculture land has been washed away due to flash floods at several places while landslides have damaged orchids in various areas,” they said.
Mula Ram and Hari Singh Chib criticized BJP leadership for their ill concern towards the losses being faced by people since they have been failed to impress upon administrative machinery to meet with the affected people.
“BJP have come out of their houses for their personal motives and political propaganda as they nothing with people's problems,” he said.
Hari Singh anguished over the failure of administration in providing the compensation to the farmers who have faced severe losses in the past due to hailstorm and floods as only 50 per cent compensation was paid. He appealed to the district administration to clear their pending dues also.
Uday Chib said that the people of J&K UT are already suffering due to Covid pandemic and unemployment at peak.
The senior Congress leaders urged upon the LG administration to immediately direct the District and Tehsil authorities to constitute teams to assess the losses of farmers and take urgent steps in providing relief to the affected farmers. |
