Malad Wall Collapse

The death toll in the July 2 wall collapse in Pimpripada area of Malad East touched 31 Saturday with the death of 50-year-old Basanti Kishor Sharma in civic-run Cooper Hospital, an official said.

The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has set up a team of experts to investigate the incident of wall collapse at Pimpripada in Malad, in which 26 people were killed.

It was a miraculous escape for six-month-old Ayush Sharma, who was sleeping with his parents when a wall came crashing down on their shanty at Pimpripada in Malad in the wee hours on Tuesday.

The death toll in the wall collapse incident in suburban Malad in Mumbai rose to 22 on Tuesday evening, a senior civic official said.

In just 24 hours, Mumbai has witnessed the highest rainfall - over 370 mm - and the worst in July since the deluge of 2005. Overnight, a wall collapsed in suburban Malad, killing 21; heavy rain flooded the airport and paralysed local train, the lifeline of India's commercial capital.

A 14-hour-long effort to rescue a 12-year-old girl, trapped under debris after heavy rain led to the collapse of a wall in Mumbai's Malad area, ended in tragedy as the rescue team pulled out her body on Tuesday evening.
