Maharashtra cabinet clears draft bill to recognise women farmers, widen welfare access
Maharashtra's cabinet has greenlit a groundbreaking bill to legally recognize women farmers, even those without land.

This document will unlock access to crucial government welfare schemes, subsidies, institutional credit, and agricultural support, ensuring their vital contributions are officially acknowledged and rewarded.
