The Maharashtra government has expanded the ambit of its loan waiver scheme to include even those farmers who had taken loans after 2008.
Earlier, the scheme, titled Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Sanman Yojana, covered only those farmers who have loan outstanding between April 1, 2012 and June 30, 2016.
Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis made the announcement yesterday during his fortnightly programme ‘Mi Mukhyamantri Boltoy’.
