It clearly shows that how cruel is our mumbai municipal corporation towards ones life,where 8 children & 8 women dies.

As we know that mumbai municipal corporation issued letter to landlord for vacant this building few times back but never took action seriously by the authority.

In my views these 20 people has been died by these authority who should punish with life term imprisonment.
