"content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, this particular irrigation scheme was initiated in 1997. It was a rice project. Immediately it was initiated â in the first year â there were the El Nino rains, which destroyed the whole scheme. People had already been employed. So, the project did not, really, operate. I am sure that the hon. Member knows very well that the project never operated. So, the people who had been employed at that particular time could not be laid off. They were kept in employment, although the project was not going on. That was why the problem arose, and is why we had arrears. We have an intention of reviving the project. I am sure that, immediately the project becomes operational, these people will be put on the payroll, and they will be paid promptly."
