महाराष्ट्रात पावसाचा उशिर – मराठवाडा आणि विदर्भात खरीप हंगाम धोक्यात
Maharashtra is facing a major monsoon deficit between June 1–23, 2025, especially in Marathwada and Vidarbha. Key districts like Gadchiroli, Hingoli, and Nagpur have received 60–86% less rainfall than normal, raising alarm for kharif sowing. Western coastal districts like Raigad and Ratnagiri, however, show surplus rain. If rains don’t improve soon, a severe water crisis and crop failure may follow.
