Mumbai: BJP legislator Pravin Darekar presented a cheque for ₹11 lakh to Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis on his birthday. The donation was made to the Chief Minister's Relief Fund to support farmers suffering from drought in Maharashtra. Darekar made the contribution on behalf of the Raigad Pratishthan in an effort to assist drought-affected farmers, agricultural laborers, and their families.
Chief Minister Fadnavis expressed appreciation for Darekar's initiative. Realizing the severe drought conditions in the state, Darekar opted to forgo his birthday celebration. He urged party workers and supporters to skip birthday expenses and instead contribute towards aiding drought-affected communities. Several organizations responded to his appeal, including the Mumbai City District Federation, Mumbai Suburban District's western suburbs unit, Subhash Dokare, Swabhimani Yuva Mitra Mandal, and Pandurang Wagh.
All organizations donated varying amounts ranging from ₹21,000 to ₹5 lakh. Darekar, who also heads the Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Authority's Self-Redevelopment initiative, was joined by Dr Yash Pravin Darekar, chief coordinator of Raigad Pratishthan during his meeting with the Chief Minister.
