Maharashtra's flood-affected farmers in Dharashiv district have found a vocal advocate in Shiv Sena MP Omprakash Rajenimbalkar.
Rajenimbalkar on Wednesday pressed for multiple aids including Rs 50,000 per hectare, loan waivers, and infrastructure rehabilitation to aid farmers devastated by recent floods. He insists the state recognize the crisis as a 'wet drought' and act accordingly.
