Mangaluru, Jul 26: A woman suffered injuries when a hill collapsed and fell on her house at Mallur on the outskirts of the city in the wee hours of Monday July 26.

The injured woman is identified as Beepathumma (72). The coastal districts are experiencing heavy rains since some days. On the night of Sunday also there was non-stop rain. Due to this the huge hill behind the house of Zubair near Mallur junction collapsed at 5.30 am on Monday. Beepatumma’s eyes got injured in this incident. As she was alone at home no other loss of life occurred fortunately.

Zubair’s family was also living in the same house. However, they left for his wife’s house on Sunday. Otherwise the disaster would have been of greater magnitude as per local leader N E Mohammed.

Local panchayat president Ismail Bollankini, members Ilyas Paade, Hasan Bava, T Abbali and Suma Shetty visited the hospital and took details of the incident from the injured Beepatumma.

    God saved the woman. It's a miracle that house is not buried under mud given size of the adjustant hill which has been cut 90 degrees vertical by some brainless person without realizing the impending danger. When you destroy the nature it has its own time and method in paying back in order to balance it out.

    We can only say thanks to Almighty for saving the lone woman. People play with nature and nature is helpless. Why digging the hill and extending the area. This house just lies few feet from the hill. The mud looks very loose and continuous rain may bring havoc. The occupants have to be careful. Fortifying the collapsed part is not an easy task and not worth the cost involved.
