Three officials have been charge-sheeted for their negligence in handling farm fire cases in their respective areas. This was stated by a senior official of the administration here on Sunday.

The officials revealed that despite all-out efforts being made by the district administration, there was no stopping of farm fire incidents in the district. Rather such incidents have been increasing for the last four days. Sources in the police said 55 farm fire cases were reported in the district on Friday and 40 on Saturday.

Out of the 40 cases registered on Saturday, 21 cases have been registered against unknown persons and the remaining 19 by name. Of the 19 farmers who have been identified for violating the norms, five farmers have been arrested. All five farmers have been arrested by the Sadar police (Patti). The police said cases under Section 223 of the BNS have been registered against the accused.
