will come before Ganesh

We will get only
70% of losses
"Whatever government says they never deliver. Last year too, they promised but we got payment in parts and that too after a long gap. This time, my brother has applied but they say that the loss we estimate cannot be given and it would be only 70 per cent."
Shanu Gaude, farmer
Govt needs to
act swiftly
"I feel govt need to act in swift manner. It is livelihood for several Farmers and crop damage like this make them and their dependents suffer. There should not be deadlines but they need to clear applications as and when it comes."
Keshav Tendulkar, farmer
