Trucks carrying sugarcane were stopped on the Pune-Bengaluru highway near Tandulwadi in Sangli districts, bringing traffic to a halt.

Kohlapur:
Harvesting and transportation of sugarcane in western Maharashtra remained paralysed for the third day on Sunday due to a protest by farmers against sugar mills over partial payment of dues.

Led by Swabhimani Shetkari Sanghthana, a prominent organisation of farmers in this region, the farmers in the sugarcane heartland spread over Kolhapur, Sangli, Satara and Solapur districts have been torching offices of sugar mills and locking their field offices over the past two days. Offices of both cooperative and private mills have been targeted.

This region accounts for 60 per cent of the sugar production in Maharashtra, which accounts for 30 per cent of the country’s sugar production.

While Sunday morning passed without any incident, some incidents of protesters burning tyres and disrupting traffic were reported from areas in Kolhapur and Sangli districts in the evening. Trucks carrying sugarcane were stopped on the Pune-Bengaluru highway near Tandulwadi in Sangli districts, bringing traffic to a halt. The offices of all sugar mills in the area were locked down.
