    "content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, I have not given the Member a written answer because I got the Question late this morning. I beg to reply. (a) I am aware that farmers in Bura Irrigation Scheme may have temporarily experienced some challenge when one of the large pumps that supply water to the scheme broke down. (b) The failure of the pump was caused by stones and debris that found their way into it causing internal damage, specifically to the impetus. Currently, 3,800 acres of crop are under irrigation and continue to receive water supply. (c) Supply of water to the farms was not interrupted and, therefore, there will be no crop failure. However, to avoid recurrence of similar damage, the openings of the screens leading to the pumps have been reduced. Repairs of the pump have also been ongoing and are expected to be completed by 12th October, 2012."
