Stock advisory Company, Farmers in Maharashtra to go on strike from June 1; cut off milk, vegetable supply to cities

Farmers in Maharashtra are likely to go on an indefinite agitation from June 1 by cutting off milk and vegetable supplies to major cities like Mumbai and Pune, according to a media report.

The decision was taken after the farmers met Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis and state opposition leader Radhakrishna Vikhe Patil on Tuesday.

The farmers are demanding farm loan waivers, free electricity, grant for irrigation, better price for milk and minimum support price for the crop from June 1, reports the Financial Express.

“On Wednesday, we decided to step up the protest against the government in phases. In the first phase, we will cut off the supply of vegetables and milk to cities like Mumbai and Pune,” Dhananjay Dhorde Patil, a member of the farmer's coordinating committee told the newspaper.
