The National Real Estate Development Council (NAREDCO) Maharashtra has contributed Rs 31.2 million to the Chief Minister’s Relief Fund to support relief and rehabilitation efforts for farmers affected by the recent floods across Maharashtra. Of this, Pune members donated Rs 10 million, while Mumbai MMR members contributed Rs 21.2 million.

The floods severely impacted districts including Kolhapur, Sangli, Satara, Nashik, Raigad, and Ratnagiri, damaging farmland, homes, and livelihoods. NAREDCO Maharashtra’s contribution, made collectively by around 20 members, aims to help restore livelihoods, rebuild homes, and provide essential support to affected families.

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.”

He added, “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.”

Over the years, NAREDCO Maharashtra has actively supported disaster relief and community welfare initiatives, reaffirming its belief that progress lies in uplifting both urban and rural communities. The organisation also pledged continued support as the state government carries forward its large-scale relief operations for nearly 40 lakh flood-affected farmers.
