A major disaster was averted in Wadala's 65-storey Bombay Dyeing ICC tower when a piece of the glass facade from one of its top floors came crashing down in the compound on the day Cyclone Nisarga hit the western coast of Maharashtra. Some parts of the city had witnessed gusty winds and heavy downpour on Wednesday.

While no one was injured in the incident, it has raised serious safety concerns among residents of high-rises. "It could have fallen right on my terrace. There is a serious implementation flaw in the glass facade. It is a complete failure; the one year taken for the building's repair (by the developer) was a long time. The rectification was a patchwork," upset residents expressed over their internal communication network.
