The good news for Mumbai was bad news for railway commuters on Sunday morning. Record rainfall in Mumbai’s catchment areas throughout the night, especially near Bhatsa Dam near Vasind, which supplies water to the city, led to waterlogging in the low-lying areas surrounding the water body. This affected the railway lines and caused significant delays in train services on Sunday morning.

In Mumbai, the planned Sunday mega block was also cancelled to facilitate smoother train operations.
