Virtually rejecting Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis' assurance on farm loan waiver, Maharashtra farmer leaders on Thursday issued a two-day ultimatum to the government to accept their demands, failing which they will intensify their stir with blockades of rail tracks and roads.
If the government failed to heed our demands, farmers will on Monday (June 12) take out 'morchas' (protest marches) to the respective collectorates and government offices in all districts, followed by statewide railway and road blockades on Tuesday (June 13), farmer leaders warned in Nashik.
