Mumbai has been seeing intermittent moderate to heavy rainfall since Monday. On Friday, the rains lashed parts of the city which had a cascading effect on the city's transportation with commuters on the Western and Central Railway stating that trains are not running on time. Some commuters claimed that the trains on Central Railway's Main Line were running by at least 15 minutes.  

Meanwhile, some commuters who travel on the Harbour line of Central Railway claimed that there were no trains available to commute between Panvel and Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus. The commuter, taking to social media platform X (formerly Twitter), wrote, "No trains in CSMT direction from Panvel (Mumbai Harbour Central Railway) since 40 minutes. Do you don't have the importance of timing? No announcement for this delay."
