Only 3,000 of 36 lakh farmers seek interim loan of â¹10,000
Less than 3,000 out of 36 lakh eligible farmers have opted for an interim loan of â¹10,000 in Maharashtra. The state had offered the interim loan to facilitate sowing of kharif crops until the actual farm loan waiver was announced. Noting poor response to the interim waiver scheme, advertisements were also published in newspapers, urging farmers to avail the loan.
