{{A five-storey building has collapsed in Mumbai at day-break in the latest accident in India’s financial capital, killing at least two people with dozens feared trapped inside.}}<\/p>\n

Local people put the number of residents usually inside the apartment block as high as 60.<\/p>\n

At least two people were killed and 12 others have been pulled alilve from the building and rushed to hospital, Alok Awasthi, an official with the National Disaster Response Force, said.<\/p>\n

Officials said the building was believed to have been 35 years old.<\/p>\n

Five other apartment blocks have collapsed in or close to Mumbai in recent months, including one in April that killed 74 people.<\/p>\n

Across India, building collapses have become relatively common. Massive demand for housing around India’s fast-growing cities combined with widespread corruption often result in builders using substandard materials or adding unauthorised floors.<\/p>\n
