KAMALPUR, Aug 5 (TIWN): The coming of monsoon marks the beginning of kharif (monsoon time) crop cultivation. The peasants become active in their fields for planting seeds and saplings. As the monsoon showers not remain the same throughout the season, hence the peasants have to depend on artificial irrigation. But the activities of the Water Resource division turned the system of irrigation a mockery.
In different remote parts of the sub-division namely Jamthum, Thalbari, Bongbari, Apareshkar, Lambucharra and the like many fields still remain deprived of irrigation facilities. And the fields which have the facility suffer as the pumps and machines remain collapsed often. The scenario in different parts having easy accessibility and comparatively plain terrain is also not something very hopeful. The ‘rice bowl’ of the sub-division, the stretch of Malaya consisting of almost 400 kanis of land also suffers very badly for the lack of irrigation.
But almost a decade ago, the WR division has spent crores of rupees for providing irrigation to that stretch which resulted into nothing. And same scenario prevails everywhere in the sub-division.
More interestingly, the political parties of the sub-division remain numbed up in the issue for decades. And the embezzlement happy officials and contractors continue their venture to pocket huge money.
