Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis said that all party members should come together and discus to solve the issues.
Fadnavis asked the opposition parties not to politicize the drought and the problems faced by the farmers by asked them to discuss with the current government with a cup of tea.
"Out rightly denying the charges that government was doing nothing to handle the drought like situation. About 800 tankers are plying with drinking water in the affected zone, work in the employment guarantee scheme was in full swing and the 'Jalyukta Shivar', a water conservation scheme launched earlier was helping the farmers to overcome the drought.

Fadnavis criticized the oppositions as when total 14 districts of the state are suffering from severe droughts instead of supporting them they are politically highlighting the situation. "But the Opposition preferred to boycott. It was time for all parties to come together and sympathise with the distressed farmers in overcoming the crisis and help the state to tackle the drought more effectively.”
