Farmers in Anantapur district, who either did not get crop insurance compensation amount at all or got partially due to mistakes in the assessment of the quantum of compensation or wrong entries of extent of land, made a special application on Sunday at a “Special Spandana” for Crop Insurance here.
Joint Collector Ketan Garg took the initiative to call for complaints from the farmers at the Mandal Revenue Office. These farmers had been agitating for the past four days since the announcement of payment of crop insurance compensation.
Mr. Ketan said the “special Spandana” programme would continue on Monday and Tuesday also and on Sunday they received 915 pleas from entire district.
