yes, i saw it in Headlines today News channel, i think it is happening each and every year during the south west monsoon. :(

Not each mosoon, Mumbai had been hit by up to 94.4cm (37.1 inches) of rain Tuesday, the highest one-day total in India's history. The rains have claim the lives of over 450 people in that state.

very sad to hear the news :(
my opinion is our government should take neccessary steps to build the basic infrastructure to avoid these type of calamities in the future. Because Mumbai is not only a city, but the financial capital of India.
Let the souls rest in peace.

Seems the flood toll is now more than 1000 - very very sad indeed!

That is the official figure. The government always underplays the damage to life and property in such situations. The real figure is much higher.
