Chandrakant Bhikan Deshmukh, resident of Andarsul in Yeola tehsil, has sent a money order of Rs 216 to Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis.

He got this princely amount after selling 545 kg of onions at the Agriculture Produce Market Committee (APMC) at Yeola in an auction on December 5, Deshmukh said Friday.

The rate he got was 51 paise per kg, and was paid Rs 216 after deducting APMC’s charges, he said, showing the sale receipt.

"There is a drought-like situation in my area. How I am supposed to run my house and repay my loans with these paltry earnings?” he said, speaking to reporters.

“I did not get good price though my onions were of good quality. So I sent Rs 216 to Maharashtra chief minister in protest,” he said.
