Opposition members on Friday alleged in the Maharashtra Legislative Assembly that farmers in Sangli district of the state were being asked to mention their caste on a Union government`s online portal for the purchase of fertilisers, prompting Chief Minister Eknath Shinde to assure rectification in the system.
Shinde said the central government will be asked to remove the column on the portal where farmers are required to mention their caste.
