Farm Loans Up To Rs 2 Lakh To Be Waived In Maharashtra: Uddhav Thackeray
Mumbai: Indebted farmers who owe money to creditors will face relief in Maharashtra with the announcement today of a loan waiver up to Rs 2 lakh by Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray. Loans taken till September 30 this year will be waived, Mr Thackeray said.
Called ‘Mahatma Phule Loan Waiver Scheme’, the announcement came on the last day of the first assembly session held after the new Shiv Sena-Congress-NCP combine came to power last month.
BJP leaders walked out from the assembly after criticising the Thackeray government for not waiving all loans.
