NAREDCO Maharashtra Donates Rs 3.12 Crore to Chief Minister’s Relief Fund for Flood-Affected Farmers

Mumbai, 29th October 2025: In a heartfelt expression of solidarity with the farming community, the National Real Estate Development Council (NAREDCO) Maharashtra has contributed ₹3.12 crore to the Chief Minister’s Relief Fund to support relief and rehabilitation efforts for farmers affected by the devastating floods across Maharashtra. Of this total contribution, ₹1 crore was donated by Pune members, while the remaining amount was collectively contributed by Mumbai MMR members of NAREDCO Maharashtra.

The recent torrential rains and flash floods wreaked havoc across key agrarian districts including Kolhapur, Sangli, Satara, Nashik, Raigad, and Ratnagiri — destroying vast swathes of farmland, submerging homes, and leaving thousands of families struggling to rebuild their lives. For countless farmers, months of hard work and investment were washed away overnight, resulting in severe financial and emotional distress.

Recognizing the gravity of the situation, NAREDCO Maharashtra has stepped forward to support the state government’s mission to bring relief to these affected farming families. The ₹3.12 crore contribution, made collectively by around 20 NAREDCO Maharashtra members, is aimed at helping restore livelihoods, rebuild homes, and provide essential support to farmers as they recover from this unprecedented natural calamity.

Speaking on the occasion, Prashant Sharma, President, NAREDCO Maharashtra, said, “Maharashtra’s farmers — our revered Annadata — are the backbone of our state’s economy, providing sustenance and strength to millions. The recent floods have not only damaged crops and farmland but also shaken the spirit of countless families. Through our humble contribution to the Chief Minister’s Relief Fund, we wish to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with our farmers and support the government’s tireless efforts in ensuring relief, rehabilitation, and recovery.”

“This initiative is a reflection of our collective gratitude to the community that feeds the nation. We sincerely hope that our contribution helps bring some relief and hope to those whose livelihoods have been most affected,” he added.

NAREDCO Maharashtra expressed its heartfelt gratitude to its members and leaders who came together for this noble cause. Over the years, the organisation has been at the forefront of various social and humanitarian initiatives — from disaster relief to community welfare — reaffirming its belief that true progress lies not only in developing cities but also in uplifting the rural and agrarian fabric of the state.

As the state government continues its large-scale relief operations — having already disbursed over ₹8,000 crore to nearly 40 lakh flood-affected farmers — NAREDCO Maharashtra has pledged continued support and awareness to mobilise further assistance for those who nurture the land and feed the nation.

This contribution stands as a testament to NAREDCO Maharashtra’s commitment to compassion, collaboration, and community rebuilding — ensuring that Maharashtra’s farmers rise again, stronger and more resilient than ever.
