Nashik: NCP (SP) Leaders Gherao Baglan Tahsildar, Demand Immediate Crop Damage Assessment

Nashik: Despite Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis' and Revenue Minister Chandrashekhar Bawankule's orders to assess crop damage, the process remains stalled in Baglan taluka. The Baglan unit of the Nationalist Congress Party staged a protest against the revenue administration on Wednesday, demanding immediate crop damage assessment and report submission to the government.

The agitation was led by former Baglan MLA Sanjay Chavan, who highlighted the lack of rainfall, affecting crops like onion, maize, pomegranate, grapes, custard apple, guava, and sugarcane. Farmers fear financial uncertainty as agricultural production may decline. The party submitted a memorandum demanding immediate crop insurance compensation, comprehensive crop damage assessments, and prompt report submission.

They also requested the government to consider Baglan's drought-like conditions and provide eligible relief and benefits.
