Om Birla takes stock of crop damage due to rain, hailstorm in Rajasthan's Bundi

Kota (Raj), Mar 19 (PTI) Lok Sabha Speaker and Kota–Bundi MP Om Birla on Sunday visited agricultural fields in Rajasthan's Bundi district and took stock of damage to crops caused due to rain and hailstorm lashing the region intermittently for the last couple of days.

Birla reached Barundhan and Alkodiya villages in the afternoon and was appraised of the crop damage. He interacted with the affected farmers and comforted them.

Gopal, a farmer in Alkodiya village, told Birla that the crop in his 10 bigas of land lay flattened by rain and hailstorm and his "future now rested on God's mercy". The MP comforted Gopal and assured that he will stand by him.
