Shiv Sena (UBT) Workers Stage Protest In Nashik Seeking Swift Aid For Flood-Hit Farmers

Shiv Sena (Uddhav Balasaheb Thackeray) workers staged a protest outside the District Collector’s office in Nashik on Wednesday, demanding immediate compensation for flood-affected farmers in Marathwada and North Maharashtra, along with the swift implementation of the announced government relief package.

A memorandum listing their demands was submitted to the district administration during the protest. The party alleged that thousands of acres of farmland across Marathwada and North Maharashtra have been devastated by torrential rains and floods. Many farmers have lost their homes, livestock, wells, and agricultural structures.

“This is not merely a natural calamity but a humanitarian crisis that has crippled farmers’ lives,” the memorandum stated. It also highlighted that the government had announced a relief package worth Rs 31,628 crore under pressure from opposition parties, but its implementation has been slow and unorganized.

The memorandum further emphasized, “The delay in disbursing aid has pushed lakhs of people to the brink of hunger.”

Shiv Sena (UBT) demanded immediate financial assistance of Rs 50,000 per hectare for farmers whose land and crops have been completely destroyed. Additionally, the party called for a special pre-damage compensation package for those whose wells and farm structures were washed away in the floods.

The memorandum was signed by several party leaders, including Shiv Sena (UBT) deputy leader Datta Gaikwad, district chief D. G. Suryavanshi, former MLA Vasant Gite, metropolitan chief Prathamesh Gite, former mayor Yatin Wagh, and other office bearers.
