In Satara, a young woman fell 100 feet into a valley while taking a selfie. Local trekkers, aided by a rope, rescued her. Rupali Deshmukh, a 29-year-old from Myni village in Khatav taluka, was visiting Sajjangad and Thoseghar waterfalls with friends. She lost her control while taking selfie in Borne Ghat and fell into a ravine.

After her fall, her friends called for help, prompting local trekkers to hurry to the scene. Home guard Avinash Mande descended with a rope, risking his life to save Rupali, who was quickly taken to the hospital.

The Satara District Disaster Management Committee and District Collector have strictly prohibited tourists from visiting waterfalls, tourist spots and dangerous dam areas in the district. However, young men and women, college students and tourists should avoid the eyes of the police at such tourist spots. Then such accidents come to the fore after the emergence of emergency situations. Recently, one person was killed and six others were injured when a Scorpio car fell into a ravine.
