💨 Abstract

The opposition Congress in Gujarat has demanded the state government to introduce a new crop insurance scheme, as they claim farmers have suffered due to the discontinuation of the Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana. The state finance minister confirmed that the government has already paid Rs 1,162 crore in compensation to farmers affected by heavy rains this financial year.
