2013 Mumbai building collapse
The 2013 Mumbai building collapse refers to the catastrophic failure of an illegally constructed multi-storey building in the crowded Shraddhanand Nagar area of Malad, Mumbai, on September 27, 2013. The incident resulted in the deaths of at least 61 individuals and left numerous others injured. The building, which had been constructed without proper approval and safety measures, was reported to have been inhabited by many families at the time of the collapse. This disaster highlighted significant issues related to urban planning, construction regulations, and inadequate enforcement of safety standards in Mumbai. Following the incident, investigations led to the arrests of several officials and construction workers involved in the project, prompting calls for stricter regulatory oversight in the city's real estate sector.
