Regency Group CMD Mahesh Agrawal gives Rs 50 lakh to CM Relief Fund for drought-hit farmers

Regency Group has come forward to help farmers troubled by drought in Maharashtra. The group's chairman and managing director (CMD), Mahesh Agrawal, has contributed Rs 50 lakh to the Chief Minister's Relief Fund. The aim is to help farmers tide over the financial crisis and get some relief.

At an event in Mumbai, Agrawal met Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis on behalf of Regency Group and handed him a cheque for Rs 50 lakh for the Chief Minister's Relief Fund. Fadnavis praised the initiative and thanked Agrawal.

Drought conditions prevail in several parts of the state, and farmers are facing a shortage of money. Many families that depend on farming are left struggling to run their households. Regency Group has given the amount in a spirit of helping farmers in this difficult time.

Fadnavis thanked Agrawal for the contribution. He said that when social organisations and industrial groups step forward to help during a natural calamity or any crisis, the needy get great support. He said the group's contribution would be used to help farmers.

Agrawal has helped in times of disaster before. Last year, heavy rain caused floods in different parts of Maharashtra and upended the lives of many people. He then gave Rs 25 lakh to the Chief Minister's Relief Fund to help flood victims. This time he has given double that amount, Rs 50 lakh, for farmers, and his social work is once again being discussed.

Agrawal is continuously active in many social and public welfare efforts. He has taken part in helping the needy, standing by affected people during disasters and giving financial support to farmers. He has not limited himself to business, and has helped from time to time out of a sense of social responsibility.

Disasters such as drought, excessive rain and floods hit ordinary people and farm families hardest. At such times, financial help from social organisations and industrial groups is important.
