Shevgaon, Oct. 28 -- Around 12 acres of sugarcane, ready for harvesting, belonging to the family of former Zilla Parishad member Nitin Kakade, were reduced to ashes after a fire broke out apparently due to a short circuit in Bodhegaon village in Maharashtra's Ahilyanagar district.
Preliminary information suggests that nearly half an acre of sugarcane belonging to neighbouring farmer Gulab Daspute was also destroyed in the fire.
