Maharashtra CM Fadnavis: 40 pc dip in farmer suicides

Fadnavis was speaking after inaugurating a new administrative building at Kalamb in the district. He also performed bhumi-pujan for rejuvenation of Chakrawati river and a 132 KV power substation there.

“We are happy that due to ‘Jal-yukt Shivar Abhiyan’ (water conservation scheme), this year Rabi sowing area expanded and farmers are using water from (newly created) storages,” he said.
