(SHRI RADHA MOHAN SINGH) A statement is laid on the Table of the House.

- (a) to (e):

## STATEMENT  REFERRED  TO  IN  REPLY  TO  PARTS  (a)  TO  (e)  OF  LOK  SABHA STARRED QUESTION NO. 17     DUE FOR REPLY ON 11 TH  DECEMBER, 2018.

- (a): Year-wise and State-wise details of farmers enrolled under the Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima  Yojana  (PMFBY),  since  its  inception  in  April,  2016  till  Kharif  2018,  are  given  in Annexure.
- (b): No  Madam.  Both  loanee  and  non-loanee  farmers  are  enrolled  under  the  scheme. Loanee farmers are those who avail the Kisan Credit Card/Crop Loan for notified crops and they are mandatorily covered under the scheme. Participation of non-loanee farmers in the scheme is voluntary.

After  implementation  of  the  PMFBY  since  April,  2016,  enrolment  of  non-loanee farmers has increased from 27.81 lakh in 2015-16 under erstwhile schemes to 136.66 lakh in 2016-17 and to 138.47 lakh in 2017-18 indicating acceptance of the scheme.

Enrolment of loanee farmers declined in 2017-18 because of the reasons like farmers becoming  ineligible  for  crop  insurance  due  to  Debt  Waiver  Scheme  in  Maharashtra  and Uttar Pradesh, Government of Uttar Pradesh withdrawing  the low risk crops like sugarcane from coverage and introduction of  Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) by the Government in April 2017  to  weed  out  ghost  /  duplicate  beneficiaries  while  helping  genuine  farmers  through Aadhar based verification, etc.

- (c): The  scheme  is  in  its  third  year  of  implementation  and  the  Department  has  put  a riorous  monitoring  mechanism  in  place  in  form  of  weekly  review  with  all  stakeholders including  States,  Insurance  Companies,  Banks  and  other  supporting  agencies,    issues based  meetings  with  concerned  stakeholders  including  meetings  of  Technical  Advisory Committee and meetings of National Level Monitoring Committee (NLMC) to ensure early settlement of claims under the scheme.

(d) & (e): Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana  provides financial protection to farmers in the  event  of  crop  damage  due  to  natural  calamities.  The  amount  of  insurance  claims depends largely on the crop production and extent of damage due to the weather conditions and nature of calamities. Generally, more claims are paid by insurance companies in the adverse  weather  conditions,  while  payment  of  claims  is  relatively  less  compared  to premium, during good agriculture years. The details of insurance claims given to farmers in states / areas affected by the natural calamities in the last three seasons are as follows:

| Season        | States         | Premium paid by farmers (Rs. in crore)   |   Total Premium (Rs. in crore) |   Total Estimated Claims (Rs. in crore) |   Total* Claims Paid (Rs. in crore) | Percentage (%) of estimated claims against premium paid by farmers (Rs. in crore)   | Percentage (%) of estimated claims against Total premium (Rs. in crore)   |

Similarly,  claims  of  Rs.  16967.92  crore  have  been  paid  during 2017-18  (Kharif  2017)  against  premium  collected  from  farmers  amounting  to  Rs. 3038.70 crore.

(Rs. in Crore)

|   Sl.No. | Season        |   Gross Premium received |   Farmers contribution in Gross Premium |   Total Claims |
|----------|---------------|--------------------------|-----------------------------------------|----------------|
|        1 | 2016-17       |                  22345.5 |                                 4216.04 |        16279.2 |
|        2 | Kharif - 2017 |                  19767.5 |                                 3038.7  |        16967.9 |

Inspite  of  overall  good  monsoon  during  first  two  years  of  implementation  of PMFBY, the claim ratio during 2016-17 is about 73% and during Kharif 2017, it is about 86%. Moreover, administrative and other cost for insurance company for implementation of the scheme ranges from 10 % to 12% of gross premium.

With a view to ensure better transparency, accountability and timely payment of claims  to  the  farmers,  Government  has  comprehensively  revised  the  Operational Guidelines of the scheme recently which, inter-alia, include the following :

- i) Provision of 12% interest rate per annum to be paid by the Insurance Company to farmers for delay in settlement claims beyond 10 days of prescribed cut off date for payment of claims.
2. ii) State  Government  have  to  pay  12%  interest  rate  for  delay  in  release  of  State share of Subsidy beyond three months of prescribed cut off date/submission of requisition by Insurance Companies.
3. iii)  Increased time for change of crop name for insurance - upto 2 working days prior to cut-off date for enrolment instead of earlier provision of 1 month before cut off date.
4. iv)  Rationalization of methodology for calculation of Threshold Yield (TY) to calculate claims - Moving average of best 5 out of 7 years to be taken for calculation.
- v)  Increase in risk coverage by inclusion of risks of cloud burst and natural fire under localized calamities and hailstorm under post-harvest losses.
6. vi)  Time for intimation of loss due to localized calamities and post-harvest losses has been increased from 48 hours to 72 hours.
7. vii) Stratified grievance redressal mechanism viz. District Level Grievance Redressal Committee (DGRC), State Level Grievance Redressal Committee (SGRC).

- viii)Detailed plan for publicity and awareness - 0.5% of Gross premium per company per season earmarked for the purpose.
- ix)  Detailed  Standard  Operating  Procedures  (SOPs) for  settlement  of  claims  under localized  calamities,  post  harvest  losses,  mid-season  adversity  and  prevented sowing and redressal of disputes regarding yield data including add on features.
- x)  Inclusion of perennial crops and add on coverage for damage by wild animals on pilot basis.
