    Very sad to hear this. Poor people what to do, so many retaining wall collapse cases in mangalore. We don't have solution for this? I request all Mangalorean's each and everyone check your neighbour house where the soil level, If it's upto the wall level or hill slope, look for the strength of it and avoid such incidents. This time monsoon is heavy so please take safety measures. Retaining wall and Mescom poor electric wire/cable kills people.
