Crazy rainfall in South Mumbai resulted in massive landslide yesterday night at Peddar Road, Kemp’s corner. More than 20 big trees uprooted. A big patch of road has come off, NDRF’s doing restoration work on the ground. Meanwhile, rains have stopped in Mumbai #MumbaiRainsLive pic.twitter.com/0xHtfXjqDy
