The Modi government came to the center, I present the difference in the last 10 years. The works of the Mahayuti era are in front of the people. Lokshahi News has done the work of promoting this. The drought that occurs continuously in Marathwada. Marathwada is mainly dependent on agriculture. Except for Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, there are not many sources of industry in other rural areas. Only on agriculture "Our income depends on it. In case of drought, we supply water by tanker."

Latur has been the Chief Minister for so long, but they have not got enough water."
