Mumbai Metro’

Operations on Mumbai Metro’s newly launched underground corridor were disrupted on Monday after heavy rainfall caused flooding at two key stations Acharya Atre Chowk and Worli. The metro line was inaugurated just over two weeks ago.

The downpour led to significant water accumulation at the underground stations, forcing Mumbai Metro Rail Corporation (MMRC) to suspend services between Acharya Atre Chowk and Worli stations around 1:30 pm. Passengers were left stranded as water cascaded into stations, and videos shared online showed water entering metro coaches and escalators shutting down.
