As monsoon rains continue to pour down in Mumbai, nearly 20 people have been killed in landslides and a wall collapse.

 

From Saturday Mumbai and its surrounding suburbs have been pounded due to heavy rain. “Moderate to heavy rain or thunder showers” for next 2 days, the Indian Meteorological Department said on Sunday. 

 

Officials told Reuters that authorities have reported 11 incidents of houses and wall collapsing in the Mumbai area.  

 

On Sunday, PM Modi tweeted, “saddened by the loss of lives” while promising financial compensation for the victims’ families.
