Maharashtra Legislative Council today witnessed chaotic scenes with the Opposition demanding a discussion on the financial condition of farmers in the state, leading to the House being adjourned thrice on the first day of the Monsoon Session.
"There has been no rainfall in Maharashtra for last 22 days. Hence, there is a danger of crop failure once again. Also, the financial aid announced by the government has not reached farmers as yet. In such a condition, we demand that the government immediately waive off the loans of farmers," Leader of Opposition in the Council Dhananjay Munde said on the floor of the House.
