State also wants insurance cover for major commercial crops
The State Cabinet has decided to urge the Modi government to provide a special package for implementing relief and rehabilitation works in 22 flood-hit districts of the State.
It has also decided to urge the Centre to provide insurance cover to major commercial crops such as coffee, rubber, arecanut, cardamom, and pepper as these plantations have been damaged extensively following heavy rains and landslips in Kodagu, Chikkamagaluru, Hassan, Dakshina Kannada, Uttara Kannada, and Shivamogga districts.
At present, these crops are not covered under the Centre’s insurance scheme. Hence, it was decided to urge the Centre to cover these crops under insurance schemes such as the Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana (PMFBY) to provide adequate compensation to growers.
