Bachchan had earlier helped 350 farmers from Maharashtra by paying off their loans.
“Gratitude leans across to the desire of removing some of the burdens that farmers continue to suffer from... It was Maharashtra first, when over 350 farmers loans were taken care of... now its UP and 1398 of them that had out standings of loans on banks has been done with an outlay of 4.05 crore.”
“And the inner peace it generates when the desired is completed,” he wrote.
