A farmer may not be able to recover from this huge loss in his lifetime and he will always be in debt trap and financial crisis. This is a major reason behind the alarming number of farmers committing suicide in the country. Therefore, I would like to know from the hon. Minister through you, Madam, whether the Government may introduce any insurance scheme to compensate fully to the loss incurred by the farmers and also the Government will consider to pay the premium of the said scheme? gÉÉÒ ®ÉvÉÉ àÉÉäcxÉ É˺Éc : +ÉvªÉFÉ àÉcÉänªÉÉ, nä¶É àÉå {ÉcãÉä ºÉä ¤ÉÉÒàÉÉ ªÉÉäVÉxÉÉ SÉãÉ ®cÉÒ cè, ÉÊVɺÉBÉEä iÉciÉ xÉÖBÉEºÉÉxÉ BÉEÉ àÉÖ+ÉÉ´ÉVÉÉ ÉÊnªÉÉ VÉÉiÉÉ cè* ãÉäÉÊBÉExÉ càÉ xÉ<Ç ¤ÉÉÒàÉÉ ªÉÉäVÉxÉÉ £ÉÉÒ <ºÉ ÉÊ´ÉkÉÉÒªÉ ´É­ÉÇ àÉå |ÉÉ®à£É BÉE®xÉä VÉÉ ®cä cé*...(BªÉ´ÉvÉÉxÉ) àÉÉxÉxÉÉÒªÉ +ÉvªÉFÉ : +ÉÉ{É ãÉÉäMÉ BÉDªÉÉå +ÉÉ{ÉºÉ àÉå ¤ÉÉiÉå BÉE® ®cä cé? …(´ªÉ´ÉvÉÉxÉ) àÉÉxÉxÉÉÒªÉ +ÉvªÉFÉ : ®ÉVÉä¶É ®ÆVÉxÉ VÉÉÒ, +ÉÉ{É BÉßE{ɪÉÉ BÉE®BÉEä ¤Éè~ VÉÉ<A* SHRI ANTO ANTONY : Madam, yesterday the hon.
