Out of the 5 windmill towers in Dapoli Nagar Panchayat premises, 1 tower collapsed on Monday afternoon with a loud noise. This damaged the car of former corporator Rishikesh Gujar, which was parked under the tower. When the tower collapsed, disaster was averted due to less traffic as it was lunch time.
When Ramdas Kokre was the chief of the Nagar Panchayat, he also got the financial support of Mahaenergy for setting up 5 windmills in the premises of the Nagar Panchayat to make the Nagar Panchayat self-sufficient in terms of electricity. The Nagar Panchayat had borne 10 percent of the cost for this. For this, the Nagar Panchayat had spent about 11 lakh rupees. At that time, 5 towers for wind mills were erected in the premises of Nagar Panchayat. Through this, some amount of electricity was being supplied to the Nagar Panchayat.
