Train Services Severely Affected
Local train services in Mumbai have been badly hit due to the heavy downpour. Services between Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus (CSMT) and Thane, as well as on the Harbour Line between Kurla and CSMT, have been suspended until further notice. However, shuttle services are currently operating between Thane–Karjat, Khopoli and Kasara to provide limited relief to commuters.
Schools, Colleges and Offices Closed
Considering the severity of the weather, schools, colleges, and government offices have been declared closed for the day. This step has provided safety to students and employees, but overall public life has come to a standstill. Daily wage workers and office-goers have been worst affected due to the transport shutdown in several parts of Mumbai.
NDRF and Army Teams Deployed
To manage the worsening situation, NDRF teams and Indian Army personnel have been deployed for rescue and relief operations. Evacuations are underway in flood-hit regions including Nanded district. Rescue operations are being carried out round-the-clock to assist stranded residents and ensure the safety of people in low-lying and heavily waterlogged areas across Maharashtra.
Farmers Suffer Crop Damage
Maharashtra’s agricultural belt has also been hit hard. Nearly ten lakh hectares of land sown with kharif crops has gone underwater due to relentless rainfall. Farmers are facing huge losses, and state authorities are preparing relief packages. The situation has triggered major concerns about crop shortage and financial distress among the farming community.
Traffic Chaos Across Mumbai
Mumbai Traffic Police have reported severe waterlogging in areas such as Gulalwadi, Nagpada, Byculla, Wadala Station, Hindmata Junction, and Matunga. Vehicular movement in these zones has slowed down drastically or come to a halt. Commuters are facing long delays and diversions, with emergency vehicles struggling to reach certain affected locations due to submerged roads.
Conclusion: Mumbai Rains
The relentless Mumbai rains have paralyzed the city, halting train services, shutting down schools, and flooding roads. With the IMD’s red alert, authorities remain on high alert, while NDRF and Army teams continue rescue operations. Farmers face massive losses as crops are submerged. Until the rains ease, Mumbai and Maharashtra will continue battling nature’s fury.
