Re: compensation to farmers who lost their crops and lives due to

SHRI JAGDAMBIKA PAL (DOMARIYAGANJ): Due to untimely rains and hailstorms in various parts of Uttar Pradesh and Bihar, 90% of vegetable, 70% of mustard and 60% of wheat crop has been destroyed along with the death of at least 6 persons, which has led to an estimated loss of about Rs.255 crore and due to which the farmers in this region are under extreme stress. Although the hon’ble Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh has already pledged support in this regard, however, I would like the Central Government to look into the matter and make due assessment of the loss and provide necessary support in the form of compensation.

Re: Need to abolish District Improvement (DI) Fund of Darjeeling District,
West Bengal. SHRI RAJU BISTA (DARJEELING): Darjeeling district is the only district in India where the District Magistrate Administraters land labelled as District Improvement (DI) Fund. This provision was made by the British during colonial times so that British business and home owners could be given preferential allocation of land. This unconstitutional provision has, however, continued under the West Bengal Land Reforms Act, 1955 after Independence. DI Fund allows the District Magistrate to have a monopolistic control over the lands, which has led to repeated harassment of our people. The revenue collected for DI Fund never finds entry into the Consolidated Funds of the State. Permanent settlers on lessees are forced to pay a hefty yearly lease premium. Today, area covering 748.39 acres with 3297 tenant families are forced to live under the mercy of the DM. I request the Union Government and West Bengal Government to abrogate this unconstitutional provision.

SHRIMATI SANGEETA KUMARI SINGH DEO (BOLANGIR): Odisha, having an approximately 482 km coastline is often vulnerable to natural calamities. During the last five years, Odisha experienced severe cyclonic storms namely Hud Hud, Phylin, Titli and Fani. Electricity transmission & distribution network in the coastal belt of the State has been repeatedly getting damaged due to the land fall caused by such cyclonic storms with wind speeds up to 300 kms per hour right up to about 150 kms from the coastline. The cost of rebuilding power infrastructure has been enormous stretching to thousands of crores with a lot of hardships to the public each time.

Re: Non-revision of royalty on major minerals.
SHRI BHARTRUHARI MAHTAB (CUTTACK): Odisha produces about 115th of the total coal produced in the country. This State continues to bear the brunt of adverse effect of such mining on the environment in addition to increased strain on water resources and infrastructure coupled with displacement of people. But, a main portion of economic benefits from coal-mining is being appropriated by the Union Government.
The royalty on coal was last revised by Government of India in April 2012. As per provisions of the MMDR Act, the rate of royalty on coal is due for revision in every three years. As such, revision was due in April, 2015. Instead of revising royalty the Union Government has raised the Clean Environment Cess on coal from Rs. 200 to Rs. 400 per tonne. Odisha has demanded for early revision of royalty from l4% to 20% on coal. Besides, 6% of cess be earmarked to coal bearing States as they have to bear the cost of environmental degeneration and rehabilitation.
Similarly, the royalty on major minerals including iron ore was last revised in September 2014. It is due for revision in September 2017.
Due to periodic non-revision of royalty on major minerals including iron ore, Odisha is losing extensively towards mining revenue.
I would urge upon the Government to revise the royalty for coal and other major minerals including iron-ore from the period specified as per the MMDR Act. (ends)

Hon. Speaker, Sir, we are ready to pass the Finance Bill without discussion. I fully agree with the decision taken in the meeting of leaders of all parties. But last week, and the week before that also, I had raised a point of order regarding the same issue that after guillotining all Demands for Grants, let the Finance Bill be discussed and passed. It is quite unfortunate that the Finance Bill has been postponed like anything to the last moment. I think the Government is not taking seriously the observations made from this side. Twice I have raised the point of order regarding the same issue. Now, we are forced to pass it. I am not disputing anything. We are fully cooperating with the Government, but with a strong objection. Sir, 41 amendments have been brought here and a new part has been introduced in the Finance Bill. There are 41 amendments to the Income Tax Act 1961 and a new part, that is part 4A, is also incorporated in the Finance Bill. We are not having the opportunity to have a discussion, which means it is quite unfair as far as the rights of the Members are concerned.
