CM Devendra Fadnavis (The Total Investment & Insurance Solutions)
Farmers owe the Maharashtra exchequer Rs
17,000 crore in the form of outstanding power bills for the agriculture pump
sets, Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis today told the Legislative Assembly.
Fadnavis
also said though the government had initiated the process to recover the
pending dues, it has stopped the drive temporarily taking into consideration
various hardships being faced by the farmers.
“The
state government was directed by the MERC (Maharashtra Electricity Regulatory
Commission) to recover the amount from farmers and the process had begun.
However, considering the hardships faced by the farmers, the recovery process
has been stayed,” the chief minister said.
Fadnavis
was responding to NCP leader Ajit Pawar’s charge that electricity
connections of farmers were being disconnected and that the government was
“unjust” to the farmers who have not been able to pay the power bills.
He
demanded that the process to disconnect the electricity connections should be
stopped.The Total Investment &
