JAMMU, Mar 12: The State Government should immediately direct all the concerned departments to deal with any situation in view of the weather forecast warning avalanche, snowfall and heavy rain in Jammu and Kashmir. The State unit of BJP assures of every sort of help to the administration, if needed, said party State general secretary Dr. Narinder Singh, while drawing the attention of the Government to the reports that fresh snowfall and rains may result in avalanches and landslides in some place across this Northern-most State.
Dr. Narinder Singh said that whenever there is natural calamity, it causes destruction and loss of lives and property. The worst affected by such natural calamities are farmers as their standing crops get damaged and their livestock perish.
Stressing on adoption and implementation of ‘Prime Minister Fasal Bima Yojana’ in the State at the earliest, Dr. Narinder Singh said that the farmers are totally dependent on the agriculture produce for their survival and loss to their crops create mental stresses among them, which at times force them to commit suicides. He said that the implementation of PM ‘Fasal Bima Yojana’ will benefit the affected farmers if their crop is damaged at any stage, right from sowing to harvesting.
