State govt to also provide an advance relief of Rs 3,500 to over 30 lakh affected farmer families that will cost the state exchequer about Rs 1,200 crore

Ranchi: The Jharkhand government on Saturday declared about two-thirds area of the state as drought-hit, announced payment of interim relief to the affected farmer families and also decided to seek financial assistance from the Centre for tackling the situation.

“In the review meeting of Jharkhand State Disaster Management Authority regarding drought, it was decided to declare 226 blocks of 22 districts of the state as drought-hit,” chief minister Hemant Soren informed in a Twitter post after the meeting on Saturday evening.

The state government will also provide an advance relief of Rs 3,500 to over 30 lakh affected farmer families that will cost the state exchequer about Rs 1,200 crore, the chief minister’s office stated in a release.

Earlier, the state’s agriculture department had prepared a report based on its findings on the required parameters for assessing drought conditions as laid down in the central government’s Manual of Drought Management 2016 that was discussed in the review meeting.

It was found that drought-like situations prevailed in 226 of the total 360 blocks, spread over 22 of the 24 districts of the state (barring Simdega and East Singhbhum), of which 154 were severely affected while the rest 72 had moderate impact.
