We have decided to help the private sugarmills and soft loan of Rs.100 crore has already been provided," he said at the meet the press programme organised at Chandigarh Press Club here.In reply to a question, he said the government is contemplating to launch an insurance scheme for farmers.In order to protect the domestic sugar industry, Haryana's neighbouring state Punjab last month imposed entry tax on sugar.
