Mumbai and its neighboring areas are in the throes of a ruthless monsoon. At least 10 people have died, many of them crushed under falling trees in various parts of the Maximum City. Several localities have been inundated after just about 200 mm of rain. The downpour has also exposed key gaps in the state's much-touted infrastructure. The 'Missing Link' – a 13.3-km stretch built to expedite traffic between Mumbai and Pune – has suffered damage in its first monsoon, weeks after inauguration. And now, four months after the BJP-Sena credit war, both parties are shifting blame over the infrastructure gaps troubling Mumbaikars.
