At least 10 people were killed in a landslide in Raigad district at Irshalwadi village.
"This survey should be done on a mission mode," Danve tweeted.
At least 10 people have died in the landslide at Irshalwadi village on Wednesday night due to very heavy rains.
Danve said he reached the tribal village and interacted with personnel from the National Disaster Response Force at the site.
"There is an utmost need to carry out an audit of villages sitting on foothills in mountain ranges like Sahyadri and Satpuda and their geographical location. The villages that need relocation should be moved on priority," Danve tweeted.
"It should be done on a 'mission' mode so that no one loses their life like this (in Irshalwadi)," he tweeted.
The area where the landslide took place reported 499 mm rainfall in the last three days.
Maharashtra Congress president Nana Patole said in the assembly, "The Madhav Gadgil committee (on environment) was formed during the UPA-II government. But its report was never published. The state government should clarify why the report is not out yet."
