According to the Andheri police, the incident took place around 8.50 am when Gaikar was walking towards his office with his friend after getting down at Andheri station

The seven reservoirs have a total storage capacity of 14,47,363 million litres. On Wednesday, the city's water stock stood at 41.36 per cent, highlighting the rapid rise in reserves following intense monsoon activity

The incident took place after continuous rainfall caused floodwaters to enter the facility. The strong current carried away thousands of cylinders, which were later seen floating in the Patalganga River and Kharpada Creek

According to the IMD's morning weather bulletin issued at 8 am, the city is expected to witness a generally cloudy sky with intermittent spells of light to moderate rainfall. Heavy rainfall is likely at isolated places, accompanied by lightning, thunder and gusty winds reaching speeds of 40-50 kmph

Floodwaters from the overflowing Patalganga River have left Dolghar village in Raigad isolated for four days, disrupting power, transport and mobile connectivity.

After withstanding the 2024 and 2025 monsoons, the Mumbai-Pune ghat rail section suffered major disruptions this year as record rainfall tested slope protection measures. 

After three days of rain-induced delays, operations at Mumbai airport have returned to normal, with ground staff being praised for ensuring smooth passenger movement.

Train services have resumed on the Mumbai-Pune route after restoration work in the ghat section, while efforts continue to reopen the remaining rail lines.

Western Railway will raise track levels in the Vasai section by 400 mm to improve flood resilience, while MRVC will construct new lines at a higher elevation
