## ANSWER

## MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE AND FARMERS WELFARE

कृ ष एवं कसान कयाण ½ãâ¨ããè

(SHRI RADHA MOHAN SINGH)

- (a) to (e): A statement is laid on the Table of the House.

## STATEMENT  REFERRED  TO  IN  REPLY  TO  PARTS  (a)  TO  (e)  OF  LOK  SABHA STARRED QUESTION NO. 92  DUE FOR REPLY ON 22 ND  NOVEMBER, 2016.

(a) & (b): The  National  Crime  Records  Bureau  (NCRB)  under  the  Ministry  of  Home Affairs compiles  and  disseminates  information  on  suicides,  in  its  publication  titled 'Accidental  Deaths and  Suicides  in India'  (ADSI).  These Reports  on  suicides  upto  2014 are available on its website. The Reports for the subsequent years (i.e. 2015 and 2016) have not been published yet.  During the year 2014, out of 969 farmers' suicide due to farming related issues, 491 were due to Natural Calamities. The list of districts declared as drought affected by the concerned State Governments during 2015-16 is at Annexure - I.

(c)  &  (d):            The  State  Government  is  primarily  responsible  for  taking  necessary  relief measures  in  the  wake  of  natural  calamities  including  drought.  For  undertaking  relief measures, funds are available  with  the  State  Government  in  the  form  of  State  Disaster Response  Fund  (SDRF).  Additional  financial  assistance,  over  and  above  SDRF,  is considered from National Disaster Response Fund (NDRF) for natural calamities of severe nature and is approved on the basis of Memorandum  received  from  the State Government, in accordance with established procedure.   Assistance under SDRF/NDRF provided is for immediate relief and not by way of compensation for the loss suffered.  The details regarding cropped area damaged by 33% and more in the drought affected States as reported by the State Governments are at Annexure-II.    Govt. of Gujarat had declared semi scarcity in  06  districts  of  the  State  during  Kharif  2015.  However,  no memorandum was submitted by the Govt. of Gujarat seeking financial assistance from NDRF.

Details  regarding  assistance  sought  and  approved  for  drought  from  NDRF  in  the last  three  years  and  current  year  are  at  Annexure-III.  The  reasons  for  mismatch  in assistance  sought  for  by  the  State  Governments  and  amount  approved  by  the  Govt.  of India is due to following reasons;

-2-

- (i) Agriculture  Input  Subsidy  is  calculated  on  the  basis  of  the  latest  published Agriculture Census (2010-11) data on percentage of Small and Marginal Farmers (SMF) & average landholding of those other than Small and Marginal Farmers (OSMF) in the State and thereafter, assistances recommended to SMF & OSMF as  per  the  criteria/guidelines  dated  08.04.2015  issued  by    Ministry  of  Home Affairs (MHA) for providing assistance to the farmers from NDRF/SDRF.
- (ii) The demand of States in other Sectors is also examined in accordance with the criteria/guidelines  dated  08.04.2015  issued  by  MHA for  providing  assistance  to the  farmers  from  NDRF.  In  some  cases,  the  State  Governments  demand assistance for items which are not admissible as per the existing norms vide the guidelines dated 8.4.2015.

(e): As per provision of Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana (PMFBY), admissible claims are worked out on the basis of yield data generated from Crop Cutting Experiment (CCEs) submitted  by  concerned  State  Government  to  the  insurance  companies.  Hence,  the numbers of beneficiaries (to whom the claims are paid) are known only thereafter. The cutoff date for receipt of yield data for Kharif 2016 season is one month from the final harvest. There still is time for this and as on date details of beneficiary farmers are not known.
