Maharashtra Appoints Co-Chairpersons In 25 More Constituencies For Farm Road Scheme

The Maharashtra government has appointed co-chairpersons for field-level committees in an additional 25 Assembly constituencies to expedite the implementation of the Chief Minister Baliraja Shet-Panand Road Scheme. This decision was made by Revenue Minister Chandrashekhar Bawankule on Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis' instructions, with a Government Resolution (GR) issued accordingly.

Earlier, co-chairpersons were appointed in 91 Assembly constituencies on July 15, 2026. With these latest appointments, the government aims to strengthen committee functioning in the remaining 25 constituencies and accelerate the construction and improvement of farm access roads.

Revenue Minister Bawankule directed district collectors to promptly include the newly appointed representatives in their committees and commence the necessary work. The newly appointed co-chairpersons are as follows: Nitin Shankar Patil for Shahada, Dhanraj Vithobaji Ashtankar for Hingna, Chatrabhuj Segoji Bisen for Tirora, and so on, up to Satyajit Vasantrao Yadav Deshmukh for Palus-Kadegaon.

The Assembly constituency-level committees are crucial for addressing farmers' grievances related to farm access roads at the village level. Local co-chairpersons will help bring farmers' concerns directly before the committees, facilitating faster resolution of road-related issues, as stated by Bawankule.
