The Deputy Chief Minister was addressing a public meeting in Rampura Dhillon village of Sirsa district today.  During this, on the demand made by the villagers regarding the village, the Deputy Chief Minister assured that all the demands will be fulfilled. I will leave no stone unturned in giving the grant, I will answer the demand.

The Deputy Chief Minister said that the government is completely serious about the damage caused to the fields due to waterlogging.  He said that if the farmer suspects that his girdawari is not correct, then he should go to the Meri Fasal-Mera Byora portal and upload the photo of his crop loss on the compensation portal.  Patwari will report the crop loss again.

Sh. Dushyant Chautala said that the state government is going to take a big step that in case of loss of house of the poor due to rains, Rs. 80,000 will be given to them.  For this the law will be amended so that the poor can get the  benefits.  To simplify this compensation process, the concerned Deputy Commissioner will be empowered so that the eligible person can get it at the earliest.  He said that earlier there was a provision of compensation only on the damage caused to the house during the floods and there was no provision of compensation for the damage to the room built on the tubewell in the field.

The Deputy Chief Minister said that in three and a half years, we should take such steps, which have directly benefited the weaker sections. In one year’s time, we made provision for skilled employment. In skilled employment, the family whose income is less than Rs. 1.80 lakh will be given priority.
