BULDHANA: At least 91 farmers from Maharashtra's Buldhana on Monday submitted a letter to Maharashtra governor C Vidyasagar Rao and sub-divisional office (SDO) seeking permission for euthanasia.
The farmers pleaded for mercy killing as they are not getting remunerative prices for crops and adequate compensation for their land which has been acquired by the government for construction of a highway. Recently, more than 30,000 farmers held a protest march, walking for about 180km from CBS Chowk in Nashik to Mumbai's Azad Maidan. Roland Francis Toronto.
