Chief Minister Dr. Mohan Yadav has said that wherever crops have been damaged due to excessive rainfall, a survey of every affected field will be conducted and compensation will be provided to farmers. “Farmer brothers, do not worry. The state government stands firmly with you,” he assured.
On Friday, CM Dr. Yadav visited Kariya village in Sailana tehsil of Ratlam district to inspect crops affected by heavy rainfall and yellow mosaic disease. He visited the soybean fields of farmers Shri Manohar Lal Malviya and Shri Radheshyam Patidar and assured them that the government will help farmers overcome this crisis.
