The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government in Punjab, led by Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann, has announced that it is offering the highest crop loss compensation in the country to farmers affected by floods.
Focus on Genuine Beneficiaries
According to the Punjab government, the compensation is being directly provided to the rightful cultivators, ensuring that assistance reaches those who have genuinely suffered losses. The initiative aims to eliminate middlemen and false claims, delivering financial support to those most in need.
Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann emphasized that his government stands firmly with farmers in times of distress and is committed to protecting their livelihoods. He added that every affected farmer will receive fair and timely compensation, setting a model for transparency and accountability in relief distribution.
Punjab’s Relief Measures
Punjab’s flood-affected regions witnessed severe damage to crops earlier this year. The State administration conducted on-ground assessments to identify genuine beneficiaries and began direct bank transfers of compensation amounts.
Officials said that Punjab’s approach ensures both speed and fairness, as compensation is credited without delays or political bias.
The Mann government’s initiative reflects its broader commitment to farmer welfare and rural stability, strengthening Punjab’s position as a leading agricultural state
