Rains became a disaster in many cities of Maharashtra, two people were swept away in a swollen drain

Mumbai | It is raining heavily in many cities of Maharashtra this time. The situation is such that water has been filled up to the knees in many places and there is a flood-like scene in many places. A 22-year-old man was killed and another injured when a tree fell on a shanty in Mumbai following rains in the last 24 hours.

This is the third death in two days in incidents of tree falling amid rains in Mumbai. Two people were killed in separate incidents of falling trees in Mumbai’s western suburbs on Wednesday.

The India Meteorological Department (IMD) issued an ‘Orange Alert’, predicting heavy to very heavy rainfall in six districts of Maharashtra namely Palghar, Raigad, Thane, Ratnagiri, Sindhudurg and Nashik on Thursday.

The IMD issued a ‘yellow alert’ for Mumbai on Thursday, predicting relatively less intense rain. According to civic officials, no major water-logging was reported in the city and suburbs since Thursday morning as the intensity of rains reduced after heavy overnight rains.

Officials said suburban services on Central Railway and Western Railway were normal, though trains were running late by a few minutes.

A huge banyan tree was uprooted and fell on a shanty in the Indu Oil Mill complex in Byculla area around 2.30 am on Thursday, trapping some people inside, a BMC official said.

After getting the information, the fire brigade personnel reached the spot by cutting the branches of the tree and pulled out the two injured from the hut. Both were rushed to the nearby JJ Hospital where doctors declared one of them, Rehman Khan (22), brought dead, the official said. Moderate to heavy rains lashed Mumbai and its neighboring areas in the last 24 hours. An official said the IMD has predicted “moderate to heavy rain with very heavy falls at isolated places likely over the city and suburbs” in the next 24 hours.
