The Maharashtra government on Wednesday released a document confirming that it had submitted details of flood damage to the Centre. This comes after reports claimed the Union government had not received any submission from the state. State Revenue Minister Chandrashekhar Bawankule’s office shared a letter seeking financial support under the National Disaster Response Fund (NDRF).

Opposition parties slammed the state over the alleged delay and lackadaisical approach towards such a sensitive issue. Responding, Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis said, “The report has been submitted to the Union government.”
