The state Congress Party has decided to do check if the BJP-led government has taken drought relief measures by visiting the drought-affected regions in Maharashtra.
Ashok Chavan, president of the state Congress Party, said that they have formed six teams of Congress leaders. "These teams will include Congress leaders from various regions in the state. They will visit Marathwada, Vidarbha, North Maharashtra, Western Maharashtra and so on and take stock of the many schemes and measures of the government. They will see whether enough fodder and water has been provided to fodder camps or not. That apart, they will check if government's farm loan scheme has been carried out and whether the farmers have received crop insurance or not. We will thoroughly check the situation and then, prepare a report. The report will be submitted to Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis and to the governor as well," Chavan said.
