Over 100 people are feared trapped and 54 others were injured after a huge hoarding collapsed in Maharashtra's Ghatkopar area as rain and gusty winds lashed parts of the state on Monday.

The BMC officials said that a complaint will be filed against advertising company Ego Media under the Disaster Management Act.

A rescue operation is underway, they added.

In another incident, an under-construction metal parking lot collapsed on a road in the Wadala area of Mumbai, killing at least three people and leaving 59 others injured as unseasonal rainfall continues to create havoc across the city.
