A major disruption in CNG supply triggered chaos across Mumbai on Monday, with long queues snaking outside the few operational pumps after a key gas pipeline suffered damage, bringing thousands of CNG-run autos, taxis and even BEST buses to a halt.

Since early morning, Mumbaikars—especially office-goers—reported hour-long waits, cancelled rides, and soaring surge prices on aggregator platforms as several CNG pumps went offline due to sharply reduced gas pressure.
