The Mahanagar Gas Limited (MGL) on Monday said that compressed natural gas (CNG) supply across its network will normalise by Tuesday noon after third-party damage to a key Gas Authority of India Limited (GAIL) pipeline at Trombay affected operations at its Wadala City Gate Station, bringing the city to a grinding halt. The company assured that domestic piped natural gas (PNG) consumers are being supplied fuel on priority, while a few CNG stations in Mumbai, Thane, and Navi Mumbai remain non-operational. Currently, 225 out of MGL’s 389 CNG stations are functional, it said in a press release.

The disruption triggered chaos across the city, with long queues at operational pumps and thousands of CNG-run autos, taxis, and Brihanmumbai Electric Supply and Transport (BEST) buses stranded.
