Congress MLA from Chakrata Pritam Singh on Thursday raised the Joshimath subsidence issue in the Uttarakhand Assembly, saying the compensation being given to the affected families there is not enough.
"At least 80 per cent of the value of the damaged property should be given as compensation to the affected families in Joshimath," Singh said.
The crisis in Joshimath needs to be handled more sensitively, he said.
