No proper arrangements

Despite appealing about making proper arrangements for the farmers, the officials turned deaf ear this time. As many as 1000 farmers arrived to make use of this scheme but suffered a lot due to lack of facilities. The chairs and tents were set up for name sake. The poor farmers had to wait under the scorching sun for long time. Speaking to The Hans India, a farmer lamented that, officials should have taken more care for the farmers.
