Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Uddhav Thackeray has strongly criticised the state government's recently announced Rs 31,628 crore relief package for farmers, calling it “the biggest joke in history,” reported the PTI.

Speaking at a rally in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar on Saturday, Uddhav Thackeray warned that farmers could take to the streets unless the state declares a full loan waiver for those affected by floods and excessive rainfall.
