The Shiv Sena-led Maharashtra government on Saturday Feb 29,2020 came up with a slew
of other decisions that included making available a full meal at just Rs
10 and setting up of 'chief minister's offices' at the divisional-level
with an aim to "decentralise power"
On the last day of the Winter Session of the state legislature, Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray also announced restructuring the outstanding loans of farmers from October 2019 onwards, setting up of Krishi Samruddhi Centres across the proposed 'Balasaheb Thackeray Samruddhi Corridor' for employment generation. He also committed a steel plant at Surjagad in Gadchiroli district
Thackeray told the Legislative Council that 'Nagpur-Mumbai Sammruddhi Expressway' will be named after his father and Shiv Sena founder late Bal Thackeray. "Initially, 50 outlets of 'Shiv Bhojan' will be set up for people where a full meal will be available at Rs 10. We will expand the number of such outlets phase-wise dependent on the feedback," the CM told the Assembly. Making available meal at Rs 10 was one of the poll promises of the Shiv Sena for the Assembly elections, held in October 2019
However, the biggest announcement of
the day was the loan waiver for agriculturists. "Crop loans outstanding
till 30 September, 2019, will be waived by my government. The upper
ceiling for the amount is Rs two lakh. The scheme will be called Mahatma
Jyotirao Phule loan waiver scheme,"
Thackeray said in the Lower House. The chief minister also said that upcoming division-level offices of the Chief Minister (CMOs) would be connected to the main one in Mantralaya.
