Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis has targeted the opposition at the conclusion of the monsoon session. He said that the opposition parties have adopted the strategy of ‘attack and run away’. He said that the government passed a total of 16 bills during the session, which included many important decisions related to the interests of farmers and the security of the state. Fadnavis also reiterated that the Mahayuti government is committed to waiving the agricultural loans of farmers.
The Chief Minister listed the achievements of the government
Devendra Fadnavis listed the achievements of the government in the session. These include passing a special public security bill to deal with left-wing extremism, approving a bill giving statutory status to the Scheduled Castes / Tribes Commission, forming a mining authority for Gadchiroli and a special authority for the Nashik Kumbh. Apart from this, he said that crimes related to drugs will now be brought under MCOCA. He also mentioned the formation of a committee for a permanent solution to the agricultural crisis.
What did the Chief Minister say on the allegations of the opposition?
Fadnavis said the opposition had levelled baseless allegations against the government and distracted the assembly from serious issues. “They had no concrete issues, so the questions were also based on misinformation,” he said. He also confirmed the renaming of Islampur to Ishwarpur and said it was a restoration of the historical name.
Fadnavis expressed disappointment over the clash between BJP and NCP (SP) MLAs inside the assembly and said, “Even children don’t fight like this.” He said the incident affects the image of the government’s good work.
What did he say on the meeting between ‘Mahayuti’ and Uddhav Thackeray?
The chief minister made it clear that the meeting with Shiv Sena chief Uddhav Thackeray should not be blown out of proportion. He expressed displeasure over the discussion of the “proposal” in the media and said his government is completely stable with strong allies like Shinde and Ajit Pawar.
Now the question arises whether the government will waive the farmers’ loans? So the answer is- yes, it has been clearly stated by the Chief Minister that he is committed to loan waiver and is moving towards a long-term solution
