NEW DELHI – At least 13 people were killed, and 10 others injured in the last 48 hours as heavy monsoon rains triggered landslides and floods, causing widespread destruction in parts of India's western state of Maharashtra, officials said Monday.

Girish Mahajan, a local disaster management minister, said on Monday that 13 people were killed in rain-related incidents as record-breaking rainfall lashed Mumbai and neighboring Palghar and Raigad districts.

"The worst-hit area was Mankhurd in Mumbai, where a building collapse killed six people and injured one," an official said.
