A scene in a government hospital in Mumbai on Thursday. As the city experiences a very wet July, the number of malaria cases has increased. With government hospitals overflowing with patients, the State administration has stepped up anti-malarial measures. Among the many areas under surveillance are construction sites, which have water accumulation and could result in larvae formation.
