PIL challenging Govt Policy of procurement for farmers

August 3, 2025 legaldeli

Association and another Vs. The State of Maharashtra and others with connected PIL No.25 of 2025 of Umesh Shankarrao Bhole and others and other connected matters.

By the Government Resolution dated 5.12.2016, the Government of Maharashtra formulated the policy of directly paying subsidy to the farmers to the farmers for purchase of fertilizers, pesticides & agriculture equipments. In all 44 items were included in the said GR.

However, by the Government Resolution dated 12.3.2024 the Government of Maharashtra directed procurement through Maharashtra Agro Industries Development Corporation and Maharashtra State Powerloom Corporation, instead of giving subsidy to the farmers. Similarly, there was deletion of certain items.

HELD that both the Resolutions have no nexus with each other. The Special Action Plan for productivity enhancement and value chain development of cotton, soybean and other oilseeds crops is introduced by the GR of 12.3.2024.

The Petitioner – Association of Manufacturers of sprayers have no locus to challenge the implementation of the Special Action Plan.

The special remedy of filing PIL is thus grossly abused by the traders and manufacturers of equipment and filing of the PIL and WP is in fact against the interest of farmers. The process of law is thus grossly abused.

A trader and manufacturer of one of the products has attempted to frustrate the Special Action Plan with the motive of promoting his own business interests. Therefore, the costs of Rs.1,00,000/- was imposed.
