Incessant rain has continued to take its toll on the city and surroundings for a few days now. We have seen injuries and fatalities as 'rain-related' accidents and disasters spiral.

Recently, three first-year students of SIES College on a picnic to Kharghar in Navi Mumbai drowned at a waterfall close to Pandavkada hills over the weekend. A fourth girl is still missing. Their bodies were recovered after a few hours. A witness said that at the waterfall, all the four were carried away by the forceful gush of water from the hilltop.
