The restoration and auxiliary measures have started in the areas of Punjab affected by floods, whereby both the Union and the state governments increase measures to rebuild the infrastructure and to compensate the municipalities concerned.
The Minister of State for Transport, Harsh Malhotra, announced on Friday evening that the repair of work on national motorways and the roads damaged by the recent floods, which were damaged by the recent floods, had started to ensure a smooth traffic movement. During his visit in overflowing villages in the Kapurthala district, Malhotra emphasized the extensive damage that not only destroyed, but also caused a significant loss of life and property.
“Prime Minister Narendra Modi rejected eight ministers of the union to assess the damage in Punjab. The central government will extend all possible support to compensate the state's population,” said Malhotra. He criticized the state government led by the AAM AADMI party for an inadequate reaction, but praised district officials for their proactive efforts to help the residents. Malhotra was accompanied by high -ranking BJP leaders, including the former Union Minister Som Parkash.
In the meantime, the Punjab government has introduced an aid package that offers RS 20,000 a morning for compensation for harvest losses with additional financial support for other damage that was determined by surveys. Prime Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann has instructed to complete all assessments and girdaris within 40 days.
Congressman Dr. Raj Kumar, who met with deputy commissioners to review the process, emphasized the need for impartial and accelerated surveys. He also announced a personal sanction of 50 rupees for urgent repairs to the bases of Dhussi and Kukkadan in the Hoshiarpur district, whereby the complete reconstruction was planned before the next monsoon. “We will make sure that people do not have to devastate again. Both the Punjab government and I am stuck with people in this difficult time,” he said.
Since the center focuses on the restoration of connectivity and the state that makes immediate financial relief, the authorities are working to reconcile urgent repair work with long -term rehabilitation for families with flooding.
The medical camp offers services free of charge
In the village of Nasirabad near Phagwara, under the direction of Jarnail Nangal, the chairman of the improvement of Trust Phagwara, and SC Wing Disinga Zone of the AAM Aadmi party, a free medical camp, was organized a free medical warehouse.
Accompanied by local doctors and Panchayat representatives, Nangal said the camp aimed at tackling diseases after the flood such as fever, cough, skin infections and vomiting that have spread out in aqueous areas.
While the medical efforts are continuing, the state government's announcement that flood victims would receive compensation within 45 days.
Shiv Sena (UBT) Minister of State Kamal Saroj argued that the timeline was too long in view of the urgent situation. “Families whose houses have collapsed cannot stay in tents for over a month. Farmers whose harvesting have been destroyed immediately need seeds and fertilizers. The compensation must be provided within 10 to 15 days to help the victims to recover,” said Saroj.
Saroj also asked the government to ensure full transparency when using funds, including the scholarship aid published by the center and donations of various organizations of 1,600 billion rupees. “Every rupie has to achieve the need and no victim should be left out. Corruption in the distribution of compensation is not tolerated,” he added.
