No water for farmers of Gangapur and Vaijapur

The farmers of the Gangapur and Vaijapur talukas claimed that the water resources department has released the water for the farmers of Ahmednagar district from the Nandur-Madhyameshwar dam, but the farmers from Gangapur and Vaijapur talukas have been refrained from the dam water.

The farmers in these taluka have sowed Summer fruits and vegetables as every year water is released from the dam. However, the farmers this year will incur heavy losses due to lack of water for irrigation.

Moreover, the farmers from the Ahmednagar district were given water from the NandurMadhyameshwar dam but the water resources department officers claimed that the further water could not be released due to the inadequate water storage in the dam.
