J&K farmers receive Rs 119.67 Cr under crop insurance scheme; Rs 10.15 Cr claims still pending

Srinagar, Aug 8:Farmers in Jammu and Kashmir have received Rs 119.67 crore in crop insurance claims under the Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana (PMFBY) between 2022-23 and 2025-26, while claims worth Rs 10.15 crore remained pending as of July 24, 2026, according to data furnished by the Union Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare in the Rajya Sabha. The figures were provided by Minister of State for Agriculture and Farmers Welfare Ramnath Thakur in response to Unstarred Question No 1452, asked by Rajya Sabha member Ranjeet Ranjan. The question sought State and UT-wise details of premiums collected, claims reported, claims paid and pending claims under PMFBY since 2022. According to Annexure-I of the government reply, J&K farmers contributed Rs 53.97 crore as their share of premium during 2022-23 to 2025-26. Against this, claims amounting to Rs 129.82 crore were reported, of which Rs 119.67 crore had been paid and Rs 10.15 crore remained pending as on July 24, 2026. The data indicates that around 92.2 percent of the reported claim value had been paid, leaving approximately 7.8 percent pending. At the national level, the government reported farmer premium contributions of Rs14,623.05 crore against reported claims of Rs 70,686.44 crore under PMFBY during the same period. Of the reported claims, Rs 66,159.24 crore had been paid, while Rs 4527.20 crore remained pending. This means J&K accounted for about 0.18 percent of the total farmer premium contribution and around 0.18 percent of reported claims under the states and UTs. The government data also provides details of private-sector general insurance companies selected by State Governments through the tendering process for implementation of PMFBY. In Jammu and Kashmir, IFFCO Tokio and IndusInd General were selected for the scheme in each of the years 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024. For 2025, the list expanded to three insurers Bajaj General, IndusInd General, and Kshema General. The data thus shows a change in the insurer mix in J&K from two participating private insurers during 2021-24 to three in 2025. The ministry has clarified that the state-wise insurer details relate to private-sector general insurance companies selected by the respective state governments for implementation of PMFBY through the tendering process. The J&K figure of Rs 10.15 crore in pending claims is considerably lower in absolute terms than the pending claim liabilities reported in several larger agricultural states. Rajasthan had the highest pending claim value in the state-wise table at Rs 890.45 crore, followed by Andhra Pradesh at Rs 2,817.86 crore, Maharashtra at Rs 222.96 crore, Madhya Pradesh at Rs 118.36 crore, and Karnataka at Rs 113.62 crore. Haryana had Rs 103.11 crore pending, while Uttar Pradesh had Rs 81.06 crore. However, the absolute value of pending claims needs to be read alongside the scale of agricultural coverage and claims reported in each State. In J&K, Rs 129.82 crore worth of claims were reported over the four years, with Rs 119.67 crore already paid.

NHRC seeks report from MP govt over students risking lives to cross Betwa river

The National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) has taken suo motu cognisance of a media report about school students in Madhya Pradeshs Vidisha district risking their lives by hopping across exposed check-dam pillars to cross the Betwa River on their way to school. According to the report, nine students, including five girls, from Kakraua village cross the river this way every day. The dangerous route cuts their journey from about 13 km by road to just 1.5 km. The NHRC said that if the report is true, it raises serious concerns over violation of the childrens human rights. It noted that Article 21A of the Constitution guarantees free and compulsory education to children aged six to 14 years, while the Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education Act, 2009, makes education a right for children in the same age group. Referring to the Supreme Courts 2009 judgment in Avinash Mehrotra v. Union of India, the Commission said the right to education necessarily includes the right to a safe school and safe infrastructure. The NHRC observed that the absence of a safe means for children to reach school amounts to denial of their fundamental right to education with dignity. It has therefore issued a notice to the Madhya Pradesh Chief Secretary seeking a detailed report within two weeks. A media report published on August 4 said a video showing the children perilously crossing wide gaps between exposed check-dam pillars had gone viral on social media. Villagers reportedly said they were unable to accompany their children to a distant school as they had to work in the fields, leaving families with the choice of either stopping their childrens education or allowing them to take the dangerous route. The report also said a student had failed her final examinations after missing school because she was unable to cross the pillars due to her short height. The District Education Officer has visited the site and informed the District Collector, but no timeline has reportedly been given for constructing a safe passage across the river.

Three paraded with barbed wire around their necks over theft suspicion in MP

Chhindwara, Aug 07: Three youths were paraded with bundles of barbed wire around their necks as locals kicked, punched and beat them with slippers over suspicion of theft in Madhya Pradeshs Chhindwara district, police said on Friday. A video of the assault has gone viral on social media. It shows a group of people, including security guards of the state-run Western Coalfields Limited (WCL), targeting the men, police said. Police said the group suspected that the three men had stolen cables at the WCL premises in Iklehra, about 30 km from the district headquarters, within the jurisdiction of the Parasia police station. Police inspector Khemchand Patel said the cable theft incident took place at the closed filter plant premises in the Iklehra township of the Pench area.

The trio was beaten with slippers, kicked and punched by locals while being paraded through the area with bundles of cables, allegedly cut for theft, hanging around their necks and shoulders. The allegation is being investigated, the official said. Patel said that it is the polices job to take legal measures. Action will also be taken against those who assaulted the youths. The matter is being thoroughly investigated, he said. WCLs Iklehra Township Manager Vikram Malvi said that iron cables were being repeatedly stolen from the premises, and the police administration had previously been informed about it.
