The house of a Sattari resident  has been damaged by the heavy rains and thunderstorms that hit different parts of Sattari taluka  two days ago.  The walls of Chandravati Parvar's house have developed cracks due to the impact of a lightning strike next to her house. The family has requested the government to assess the damage caused to her house and provide immediate financial assistance to her and her family.

Chandravati Parvar, while talking to the press, said that the roof of her house was blown off and her family's belongings were damaged in the rain.

Meanwhile, while inspecting the house, it has become clear that the furniture in the house was also damaged.

Similarly, the land on the side of the house has been damaged with the  impact of the lightning strike.  The family is also financially weak and repairs would take  a toll on the family meagre earnings.  It is learnt that Nagve village comes under Mauxi panchayat.  

 Chandravati, meanwhile, when contacted and asked about the incident,  said there was no loss of life.  Locals have made it clear that if the government does not provide assistance in the near future to the victim of the rains and thunderstorm, the family will be facing a financial crisis.
