Union Minister of Agriculture, Farmers’ Welfare and Rural Development, Shivraj Singh Chouhan, will arrive in Amritsar on Wednesday to meet farmers affected by recent floods. The Union Minister is scheduled to interact with farmers before holding a high-level meeting with officials to assess the situation in detail. Chouhan had earlier spoken with the Punjab Governor, Gulab Chand Kataria, and Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann to review the extent of damage caused by heavy flooding across several districts. Last week, he chaired a meeting in Delhi where he expressed concern over crop losses and assured that the Centre was monitoring the crisis closely.
He reiterated that the “farmer brothers and sisters of Punjab need not worry” as the Union Government would extend full support during this difficult time.
