A pipeline rupture on Nov. 16, 2025, cut CNG supply to Mumbai, Thane, and Navi Mumbai, disrupting transport.

A major CNG supply disruption hit Mumbai on November 16, 2025, after third-party work damaged a key GAIL pipeline inside the RCF compound, cutting off gas to Mahanagar Gas Limited’s Wadala City Gate Station. The outage affected CNG stations across Mumbai, Thane, and Navi Mumbai, impacting public transport, taxis, and auto-rickshaws, though residential piped natural gas remained unaffected. MGL urged commercial and industrial users to switch to alternate fuels and apologized for the inconvenience, stating service would resume once repairs are completed and supply is restored.
