"Relief amount should be distributed immediately to those affected by storms and crop loss - Yogi Adityanath"

Lucknow, May 4

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath chaired a meeting with officials from the Agriculture Department and the Regional Cooperative Dairy Federation at his official residence on Sunday to review progress in the sector.

Earlier in the day, CM Yogi held a Janata Darshan at his residence in Lucknow, where he met citizens and listened to their grievances, including those raised by women attendees. The Chief Minister personally reviewed the concerns and assured necessary action.

On Thursday, CM Yogi had directed officials to expedite relief work in areas affected by storms, rain, and hailstorms. He stressed the need for timely compensation in cases of human or livestock casualties and instructed that injured persons receive proper medical treatment.

"Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has instructed the officers of the concerned districts to conduct relief work with full promptness in view of the storm, rain and hailstorm," the Chief Minister's Office posted on X.

He also asked officials to visit affected areas, assess the damage, and monitor the relief efforts on the ground.

"Also, in case of loss of life and animal loss due to lightning, storm, rain etc., relief amount should be distributed to the affected people immediately. The injured should be given proper treatment," it added.

The Chief Minister further directed that drainage arrangements be prioritised to reduce the impact of waterlogging caused by bad weather.

"The Chief Minister has instructed that the officers should conduct a survey and assess the crop loss and send a report to the government so that further action can be taken in this regard. In case of waterlogging, arrangements for drainage should be made on priority," the statement said.

Meanwhile, CM Yogi expressed grief over the passing of Padma Shri awardee and renowned yoga guru Swami Sivananda Saraswati, who died on Sunday at the age of 128 in Varanasi.

Good to see CM Yogi taking proactive steps for farmers. The recent storms have caused massive damage to crops in western UP. Hope the compensation reaches farmers quickly this time. Last year there were many complaints about delays. 🙏

While the relief measures are appreciated, I wish the government would focus more on prevention. Better weather forecasting systems and crop insurance schemes would help farmers more in the long run. Still, good initiative for immediate relief.

Yogi ji's Janata Darshan is a great initiative! Common people getting direct access to CM is democracy in action. My cousin from Gorakhpur got his land dispute resolved through this platform last month. More CMs should follow this model.

The dairy sector needs equal attention! UP is India's largest milk producer but our farmers don't get fair prices. Hope this meeting leads to better procurement policies and cold storage facilities. 🐄

Sad to hear about Swami Sivananda ji's passing. At 128 years, he was truly a living legend! His yoga teachings benefited millions. May his soul attain moksha. Om Shanti 🙏

The focus on drainage systems is much needed! Every monsoon, Lucknow and other cities turn into rivers. Hope they implement long-term solutions rather than temporary fixes. Our taxes should be used better for infrastructure.
