Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot on Saturday asked officials to provide relief to farmers for loss to crops due to locust attacks.
He directed collectors of the affected districts to submit the 'gurdawari' or loss assessment report at the earliest and to start distribution of compensation to the affected farmers in the next three days.
The CM held a video conference with the collectors of districts where locusts have damaged crops and also reviewed the works being carried out for locust control, a statement said.
The collectors of Jaisalmer, Barmer, Jalore, Jodhpur, Bikaner, Pali, Ganganagar and Hanumangarh attended the video conference.
