The Maharashtra government on Friday announced a farm loan waiver of up to ₹2 lakh in the 2026-27 budget, which also focuses on river-linking projects, women empowerment, youth development, health, startups and strengthening social welfare schemes.
Chief minister Devendra Fadnavis, who holds the finance portfolio, presented a ₹7.69 trillion budget in the assembly, and said Ladki Bahin Yojana, launched ahead of assembly polls in 2024, will continue with adequate allocation for the scheme targeted at poorer women, who get ₹1,500 a month.
