Even as the Ratnagiri district administration is contemplating a protective wall along the Vashishti river in Chiplun city to keep floodwaters at bay, over 4,000 traders and shopkeepers, badly hit by the deluge, have sought assistance to the tune of Rs 3,500 crore from the Maharashtra government.
"The plan for the protection wall along the Vashishti river from Kolkewadi dam is being considered. It involves conducting a survey and sorting out technical issues. We are still in the discussion stage," Ratnagiri district collector B N Patil told The Indian Express Thursday.
