The Opposition continued to accuse the government of ignoring the needs of farmers during the current Maharashtra winter session. They pushed for better prices for onions, an increase in the Minimum Support Price (MSP) for cotton, and the requirement that farm loans be waived.

Screaming slogans, opposition lawmakers gathered on the steps of Vidhan Bhavan in Nagpur. Nana Patole, the head of the state congress, focused on the predicament of farmers, especially cotton growers who have been impacted by the recent unusual rains. To ease their suffering, he pleaded with the government to guarantee cotton growers greater compensation.
