| Offcourse at the moment putting money in monuments is a waste. Let me put some facts first rather than being emotional about all this. At present there are total 221 taalukas in 27 districts are in grip of drought crisis,40 farmer suicides and 3,000 child malnutrition deaths Is it nothing for us guys?????? In Marathwada, a cropless kharif season is looming. Farmers are left with empty fields even as government relief measures are yet to pour in. Sixteen out of Maharashtra's 34 districts have hit a serious dry patch,with less than 50 per cent of the rainfall they usually get by this time each year. For a farmer Sakharam Chalke no rain means no work. With a crop loan of 50000 rupees, Chalke has no choice but to default. "There is a farmer's saying, mother does not allow begging and father does not give enough to eat. Similarly we are caught between the government and nature," he says. Karim from Latur district had hoped of a good crop. During the recent fertilizer shortage, he waited for 3 days to get 4 bags of fertilizer. Seeds and fertilizer worth 7000 rupees now lie unused in his house. The farmer, who belongs to the Chief Minister Vilasrao Deshmukh's constituency, now plans to migrate to Pune. People who are in favor of Monuments at the time of crisis are requested to go to Wikipedia or Google and search for the term "DROUGHT" . May be then people can understand what we are going to face in future. Do you know how much was spent for bandra worli sea link ? Rs 1600 crore and in just three days , there were holes on the road which was later constructed. Since the elections are coming , this is the only way Chavan Ji can earn political grounds just by making people emotional on this issue. Feeling proud for our ancestors is never wrong , I am a Kshatriya and i respect Shivaji Ji more than anyone else here. But think of people who really need this money.Farmers are starving , dieing and left with no cattles and thier future is no where. Don't be in an impression that we will not be effected as we are getting food materials from Big Bazar or Reliance Fresh, Its ultimately the farmers who are providing all this to us for which we should be thankful to them.If the root is not strog you can not expect a healthy fruit of the tree.Thats the reason , Farmers are moving away from agriculture and we are forced to buy essential commodities from outside India, The Irony here is that last year India had a record production of wheat and sugar. This is like a man having two hands where one of his hand is rotten and needs serious attention from everyone, otherwise hand needs to be removed. Second hand has a gold chain . And he is proud of that. Come On...Dont't be emotional, Shivaji Ji will never be angry if you put these 350 Crore of money for the welfare of those farmers who are loosing thier lifes.Come out of home and face the reality.
