As the Sangli district in Maharashtra is reeling under floods, a dozen rescue teams of the Indian Navy are being deployed in Western Maharashtra. The rescue teams left for Sangli on Thursday night by road in the government transport vehicles. The Navy had to travel by road after their airlift was aborted due to unfavourable condition in Sangli and adjoining Kolhapur which is another flood-hit district.
