Maharashtra government addresses submission of flood relief proposal amidst opposition objections.
In Mumbai, the Mahayuti government has received criticism from opposition leaders regarding their submission of a flood relief proposal to the central government. This issue arose after Shiv Sena MP Omraje Nimbalkar accused the state of not providing a detailed report for financial assistance, while NCP MLA Rohit Pawar also supported this claim by pointing to a report submitted on November 27th.

In response to these concerns, Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis clarified that questions in Parliament are compiled well in advance, usually around 30-35 days. However, Pawar argued that the Centre's reply only included information up to November 26th. To address these doubts, Revenue Minister Chandrashekhar Bawankule released an official communication stating that the state government did indeed submit a detailed flood loss assessment report to the Centre.

The memorandum, which was submitted to the National Disaster Management Authority, outlined the damages caused by heavy monsoon rains in Maharashtra, including regions such as Marathwada, Vidarbha, Konkan, and Western Maharashtra. It listed the losses incurred by crops, livestock, homes, infrastructure, transportation, as well as the displacement and loss of life. The report was signed by Principal Secretary Vinita Vaid Singal from the Department of Relief and Rehabilitation.

In other news, a truck caught fire on the Mumbai-Nashik Highway in Bhiwandi. However, thanks to the quick thinking of the driver, a major tragedy was avoided.

To provide relief to those affected by the floods, the state government has announced a package worth over ₹31,000 crore. This includes ₹11,000 crore that will be directly credited to the bank accounts of affected farmers. Minister Bawankule also confirmed that Union Agriculture Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan had acknowledged the timely submission of Maharashtra's proposal.
