Criticizing the state government for insufficient response, Warring plans to meet with officials in Delhi to secure prompt assistance.

Amrinder Singh Raja Warring, the Punjab Congress president, has called for immediate intervention from the Union Agriculture Minister, following severe damage to crops caused by unseasonal rains and hailstorms in the Malwa belt.

Warring criticized the Punjab government for their inadequate response, stating that affected farmers have not received necessary compensation, comparing the current situation to last year's devastating floods.
