The proposal to distribute tarpaulins to farmers

the proposal to distribute tarpaulins to farmers The special general body meeting of Akola Zilla Parishad has decided to take back all land owned by the baner ZP and given on lease, official sources said. However, the ZP administration could not give any accurate information about land owned by the ZP in the district, leading to pandemonium in the meeting.

Also, the proposal to distribute tarpaulins to farmers and schemes to empower women will be sent to the state government by the woman and child welfare committee. The resolution to this effect was passed in the meeting on Thursday. Some members demanded that woman farmers be given tarpaulin free of cost.

Opposition leader Sevakram Tathod objected to the proposal of sending the schemes to the state government for approval, and said that there is no necessity of such new schemes. Shiv Sena member Jyotsna Chore wore a black ribbon over the mouth to show her protest.
