HYDERABAD: On the last day of the assembly session which was held for seven days and discussed the issues focused on Huzrabad bypoll for about 35 hours, Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao said that the prevailing procedure is that the state governments Submits a preliminary report to the Center on the damage caused to farmers due to rains and floods. The central government sends a team to assess the damage too late, after about three or four months. As a result, the entire process of providing assistance to the farmers is getting delayed.”Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana is fake. It is an unscientific crop insurance scheme which is being implemented in the country.
It is full of shortcomings and needs to be rectified to ensure that its benefits reach every farmer who had lost his crop. He said, "Despite several recommendations made by MS Swaminathan and Ashok Gulati committee to streamline the crop insurance scheme, the Center is silent." The entire village or mandal is affected.” A section of farmers who suffer losses in a village in the mandal are deprived of crop insurance benefits. Farmers are fed up and are reluctant to pay the premium as they are not able to get the benefit of the insurance scheme.
KCR said the government had already directed the district collectors to calculate the crop loss and other losses due to cyclone Gulab. Telangana government will provide all possible assistance to the affected farmers who have suffered losses. He also criticized the Center for not providing financial assistance when people in Hyderabad suffered losses due to heavy rains last year. He said the loss in Hyderabad floods was estimated to be around Rs 8,000 crore, but the Center has not released even Rs 8 till date.
