A day after the Acharya Atre Chowk Station on Mumbai Metro Line-3 experienced waterlogging following the first spell of showers, Mumbai Metro Rail Corporation (MMRC) Managing Director Ashwini Bhide said the incident was triggered by extremely heavy rainfall —90 mm in just one hour, between 9.30 am and 10.30 am on Monday—and high tide conditions that overwhelmed the stormwater drainage system.  

On Monday, the waterlogging prompted a brief disruption in services at the station, which was opened only 16 days ago.
