CUTTACK: Farmers of newly formed revenue villages in Cuttack district are unable to apply for Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana (PMFBY).
The last date for applying for PMFBY was July 31. However, considering the problems being faced by the farmers in applying for PMFBY, the last date was extended to August 10. But, the farmers of the new villages are unable to download the record of rights of their land at Jan Seva Kendras (common service centres) as the villages are yet to be included in existing gram panchayats. The portal used by the farmers for registering for PMFBY does not have the names of the newly formed revenue villages.
