On Monday, Maharashtra Deputy CM <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/mumbai/mumbai-news/article/maharashtra-dy-cm-ajit-pawar-unhappy-over-nephew-rohits-protest-in-legislature-complex-23299744" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">Ajit Pawar</a> assured the legislative assembly that the state government will follow-up on the proposal to set up a base camp of the National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) in Raigad district.
Last week, a massive landslide in <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/mumbai/mumbai-news/article/raigad-landslide-search-and-rescue-operation-resumes-on-fourth-day-81-people-untraced-23299550" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">Raigad</a> district killed 27 people.
Responding to a query raised by Shiv Sena (UBT) MLA Bhaskar Jadhav, Ajit Pawar informed that the govt will follow-up on the proposal.
"It appears plans are afoot to relocate the proposed NDRF base camp (in Raigad) to Goa. If it is true, it will be an injustice to the people of coastal districts (in Maharashtra) who are vulnerable to landslides," said the opposition member and sought to know from the government the status of the base camp.
Ajit Pawar said, "The state government will look into the proposal and take necessary follow-up action for setting up a base camp (of NDRF) in Raigad district. There will not be any discrimination in providing assistance to (landslides) affected people."
During the term of the erstwhile Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) government, then-guardian minister of Raigad Aditi Tatkare had taken the initiative to set up a base camp of the NDRF in Mahad town.
Last week, a massive landslide hit Irshalwadi, a tribal village located on a hill slope in Raigad killing 27 people and fully or partially destroying more than a dozen homes.
