Subject Urgent Need for Enhanced Crop Damage Compensation and Subsidy Review for Farmers in Gujarat
To the Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi,
I am writing to bring to your immediate attention the devastating impact of the recent unseasonal and extremely heavy rainfall in Gujarat, which has led to widespread and catastrophic crop damage across the state.
The current situation is compounded by the high input costs that farmers must bear, making the officially declared compensation package grossly inadequate and a source of deep distress among the farming community.
Key Challenges Faced by Farmers
High Input Costs: The base expenses for farming have become prohibitive. For instance, a single bag of fertilizer often costs around ₹1200, and the cost of quality seeds frequently exceeds ₹1000. These costs must be borne by the farmer regardless of the outcome.
Inadequate Compensation The current disaster relief or compensation packages fail to cover even the basic input costs
