Sirsa farmers agitate, demand compensation for 2020 crop loss

Rohtak Demanding compensation for crop loss incurred in 2020, farmers staged a protest demonstration outside the agriculture deputy director’s office in Sirsa on Wednesday. Kharif crop had been damaged in around 111 villages in the district due to inclement weather in 2020. Contending that farmers in the district were either not compensated at all or paid very little, Bhartiya Kisan Ekta state president Lakhwinder Singh Aulakh said, “Farmers from 26 villages did not receive a single penny in compensation, while the others were paid a paltry sum against the loss incurred. Farmers have been running from pillar to post to claim compensation.”
