The Chief Minister of Maharashtra Devendra Fadnavis accused the opposition of sending an AI-generated letter citing reasons to boycott the customary tea party and critiquing the government. The information contained in the letter, which were communicated through a media briefing too, listed the reasons for skipping the tea party and mentioned the issues which MVA was planning to raise in the monsoon session, chief among them being the farm loan waiver.
Fadnavis said that this letter was drafted on Open AI’s chatbot ChatGPT and mockingly said that he was happy the opposition was using technology, in a media briefing after the Cabinet meeting. The opposition had demanded a meaningful loan waiver for the farmers claiming that there was a drought. Responding to this, Mr. Fadnavis said: “For us, loan waiver is for the farmers, we should make our farmers live, farmers should have the strength to take loans again, we look at it from this perspective…We formed a committee and gave that committee the task of considering short-term measures, long-term measures and the impact on the banking system and giving a report and after that we have put some criteria in it.” Further, acknowledging the potential water scarcity, the CM said that this was an El Nino year, and the rainfall in June was just 80% of the long term average.
Further, he said that water storage was limited at just 24% in the State. He said that the government was giving instructions to farmers on
farming activity based on information from the Meterelogical Department. “Water storage is also limited at present.”
