How Nanded district farmers can claim crop loss compensation under PM Fasal Bima online
NANDED — District farmers who have suffered crop damage due to sudden hailstorms or unseasonal downpours must register their insurance claims within exactly 72 hours of the event to ensure compensation under the Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana (PMFBY).
Under revised Maharashtra state norms, failure to intimate within 72 hours leads to automated claim rejection. District Agriculture Officer (DAO) Dattatraya Ghadge confirmed that over 1,400 claims were disqualified last season simply due to delayed digital intimation.
