Las lluvias monzónicas causó el colpaso de muros que mataron a 27 personas en la India el martes, e interrumpió el tráfico ferroviario y aéreo en la capital financiera de Mumbai, lo que llevó a los funcionarios a cerrar escuelas y oficinas, aunque los mercados estaban abiertos.
Durante cada temporada de monzones, que se extiende de junio a septiembre, la India experimenta incidentes fatales de derrumbes de edificios y muros a medida que la lluvia debilita los cimientos de estructuras mal construidas.

Tres personas murieron cuando un muro de una escuela se derrumbó en la ciudad de Kalyan, a 42 km (26 millas) al norte de Mumbai.
En la cercana ciudad occidental de Pune, seis personas murieron en el colapso de una pared el martes, dijo un oficial de bomberos, luego de que un incidente similar matara a 15 personas el sábado.
