At least 30 people have died in the Indian city of Mumbai in separate incidents after heavy rains triggered landslides and caused houses to collapse.

The rains battered the city in the state of Maharashtra over the weekend, causing severe waterlogging in several areas and disruptions in traffic movement.

While the rains briefly abated on Monday morning, the Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) has predicted heavy to very heavy rainfall at a few places and extremely heavy rainfall at isolated places in the city over a span of 24 hours from Monday morning.
