“Life has been disrupted in Mumbai due to heavy rains everywhere,” Shinde stated. The road is congested with traffic, and this is also affecting the flow of traffic on the railroad.
“The railway administration is working to remove water from the track and is working to have traffic back shortly. He said, “I’ve ordered all emergency agencies to remain on high alert.
“People ought to leave their homes only when absolutely essential. Additionally, I’m pleading with the Police Administration, the Mumbai Municipal Corporation, and the Emergency Services to cooperate,” Shinde said.
