Consider the following statements regarding the modifications made under the Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana (PMFBY): Statement I: Under the revised framework of PMFBY, crop losses due to attacks by wild animals and inundation of paddy will now be recognised and compensated under the localised risk category. Statement II: States are required to notify wild animal damage based on guidelines, and localized risk claims require timely reporting and survey, though a blanket 72-hour automated settlement for all cases without survey is not the absolute rule. Statement III: The technological and rule-based revamp of PMFBY from the Kharif 2024 season actually explicitly includes options for features like wild animal damage rather than removing it.
