New Delhi, March 15, 2020: To assess the losses to crops because of incessant rains and hailstorm, MP and former Union Minister Vijay Goel visited village areas of Laampur, Narela and Baakner. Goel saw that wheat, mustard, sunflower and vegetables are all destroyed. These crops were set to be cut in 15-29 days but rainwater clogged in farms destroying the crops altogether.
Goel was accompanied by DM Neel Daman Khatri, farmers from several villages and sarpanch. Goel said that there are at least 50000 families in Delhi which are dependent on agriculture and sow crops on 1,25 lakh acre land. Goel assured the farmers that he will fight for them and will ensure they get due compensation.
Goel said that he has spoken to farmers, village pradhan and sarpanch throughout Delhi and has assessed that these farmers should be paid compensation of Rs 60000/acre. The Delhi Government which has been distributing freebies to people should definitely compensate the needy farmers.
Goel said that now when everyone is scared of Coronavirus, it will be difficult for farmers to gather even basics for themselves. Goel requested Delhi government to compensate farmers whose crops have been destroyed because of hailstorm and rain at the cost of Rs 60000/acre
Goel said that he will raise the issue of crop losses in Parliament and how the farmers have suffered massive losses because of rains and hailstorms.

Education is a progressive discovery of our ignorance. Hence it’s imperative in the interest of societal development that its children and youth are well educated. It’s a shame that Delhi despite being the capital of India is not fully literate whereas a small state like Kerala has attained 100% literacy.
Wateris vital for the existence of life but we need to realize that like all the other resources it is not unlimited and, going by the experts’ opinion, the next war could be fought because of it.
Youth Development Youth is the backbone of our country’s progress and we all need to work towards their overall development. Apart from providing training & employment in traditional careers I have always encouraged active youth participation in politics.
Housing To own a home, irrespective of the size, is a dream cherished by many. I understand this sentiment and that is why I championed the cause to help protect the applicants who were promised homes and felt cheated by the Delhi government.
Power is one of the basic amenities of life happens to be a matter of great concern for the citizens of Delhi. Faulty meters, power shortage and inflated power bills are the most common grievances faced by every other citizen.
