Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Arvind Sawant on Tuesday targeted Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde and his deputy Devendra Fadnavis over their Ayodhya tour and accused the government of shirking its responsibility towards farmers who are hit by unseasonal rains.

He alleged the state government announced an aid of a paltry Rs 177 crore to farmers who have lost their crops due to untimely rains and hailstorms.
