Member of Parliament from Raichur Raja Amareshwar Naik has asked officials to ensure that the benefits of Centrally-sponsored schemes and programmes reach the people, especially the farmers who are reeling under severe drought in the district.
Speaking at the District Development Coordination and Monitoring Committee (DISHA) meeting in Raichur on Thursday, Mr. Naik said that as the district has been hit by drought, the officials of the departments concerned should guide farmers in getting compensation.
Mr. Naik also asked them to ensure that farmers who cultivated horticulture crops and suffered losses receive benefits under the Krishi Sinchayi Yojana.
