It is very good program taken up by the Govt. The concerned officers who have to recommend the farmer to claim insurance are not doing well in major incidents. So, the Govt.should provide claiming insurance for their lost crops directly from the Banks with rhe coordination of Insurance companies. Then the farmers can get their claims easily.Estimation of crop losses also should be done with out any politics in the affected areas.
