South Mumbai mayhem prevailed on Wednesday as the rain chose the city's spiffy pocket as target of its fury. And then, yesterday, with a landslide, water troubles, traffic diversions and communications down, it was still brutal in D ward, comprising Kemp's Corner, Babulnath and Malabar Hill in focus.

Caving in

The civic authorities and local politicians were on the site of a retaining wall collapse, near the Kemp's Corner flyover, on the road leading to Babulanth and the Hanging Gardens. More trees fell on Thursday, adding to the debris from Wednesday.
