    Floods in India leave death toll near 1,000
    (China Daily)
    Updated: 2005-08-01 05:34

    On Thursday, 18 people died in a stampede created by rumours of storm-created tsunamis.

    A total of around 10,000 Mumbai residents took to the streets in various parts of the city on Saturday to protest against an acute shortage of drinking water and power blackouts, officials said.

    Worst affected was the central Mumbai area of Kurla where residents said they had been without power for five consecutive days.

    Johny Joseph, the municipal commissioner of Mumbai, admitted "the administration is stretched and continuing rains are proving to be hurdle," in restoring civic services.

    "The latest spell (of rains) will definitely hamper our efforts," said Joseph. "But the administration will continue doing our job and we hope to clear tonnes of garbage piled on the roads by (the end of) Sunday."

    Health officials said they were prepared to fight an outbreak of waterborne diseases and were taking preventive steps.

    S.G. Danle, deputy municipal commissioner of Mumbai, said 30,000 health workers were working in the city and suburbs informing people how to prevent outbreaks of disease.
