"It rained today, glimpses of how water gets accumulated because of Jalyukta Shivar works in Dudhgaon village in Parbhani," he said in the tweet. By PTI | Posted 2 hoursMumbai: After the recent virulent poster war between BJP and Shiv Sena, the two ruling allies today took to social media to take credit of the water conservation efforts in the parched Marathwada region of Maharashtra. Fadnavis, who is in Allahabad to attend BJP's national executive, today tweeted and posted photographs of trenches, dug under the 'Jalyukta Shivar' scheme, filled with water after rains in Dudhgaon village of Parbhani district. To this, pro-BJP Marathi daily 'Tarun Bharat' countered by asking how come Sena ministers were still a part of the BJP-led government. CM Devendra FadnavisAfter coming to power, Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis had launched the 'Jalyukta Shivar' scheme, aimed at making Maharashtra a drought-free state by 2019, whereas Shiv Sena had been running its independent scheme called 'Shiv Jalkranti Yojana' (Water Revolution Scheme) to fight drought.
