Families and farmers hit by floods have a ray of hope as the Maharashtra government has promised to conduct a complete panchnama of damage by October 5 and deliver financial aid before Diwali.

Revenue Minister Chandrashekhar Bawankule has stated that the government expects to complete a survey of damaged areas and farmland by October 4 or 5.
Stating that the government’s priority was to pull farmers out of these losses, the minister said, “Without strengthening farmers, the state cannot progress. Every affected farmer will be provided with the best possible compensation.”
