Maharashtra Revenue Minister Chandrashekhar Bawankule on Wednesday released an official statement confirming that the state government has submitted a comprehensive flood loss assessment report to the Centre, news agency PTI reported.

The announcement comes after Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Omraje Nimbalkar accused the state of failing to submit the mandatory report required for Central financial assistance. Speaking to a regional news channel earlier, Nimbalkar claimed that a response he received in the Lok Sabha suggested Maharashtra had not sent the crop damage report.
