BHOPAL: Chief minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan has said that the insurance company will have to pay 25 percent of the insurance amount of the insured crop affected by hailstorm in advance.
“The remaining 75 percent will be paid by the insurance company to farmers after settlement. The relief amount will be distributed by the state government. Farmers will be compensated for their crop loss by combining Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana and the relief amount. No poor farmer will be deprived of the relief,” Chouhan said at Chhayan village of Rajgarh district, where he had gone to take stock of the mustard, wheat, gram and masoor crops that have been damaged by hailstorm.
