A monorail in Mumbai’s eastern suburban area came to a halt between Chembur and Bhakti Park due to a technical snag and heavy rainfall, trapping passengers inside. The incident led to a power outage and claustrophobic conditions in the packed coaches. The Mumbai Fire Brigade initiated a rescue operation using snorkel vehicles. Deputy Chief Minister of Maharashtra, Eknath Shinde, stated that the incident was likely caused by overloading as the Harbour Line was shut down due to the rains. "The first priority is to rescue the passengers, provide them with medical aid, and safely take them home," he said. The discussion also covered the broader issue of Mumbai’s infrastructure challenges during monsoons, with officials citing the high intensity of rainfall and outlining long-term solutions. #mumbai #mumbaimonorail #eknathshinde #itwebvideos #monorail #mumbairains #mumbaimonsoon #rescueoperation #eknathshinde #maharashtra #bmc #breakingnews #chembur #mumbaifloods #publictransport #technicalsnag
