On Monday morning, Central Railway faced significant disruptions, leaving office-goers and students stranded on packed trains. The chaos unfolded between Thane and Mulund, with trains halted, causing commuters to face delays of up to 90 minutes. Some students were so stranded that they were unable to reach their mid-semester exams on time.
Two students from Somaiya College, Apeksha Mishra and Tejashvi Mishra, were stuck on a train for over four hours and had to miss their Chemistry examination. The examination was later rescheduled to October 28, leaving the students disappointed. Commuters expressed frustration with the railway authorities for not communicating the disruptions clearly and promptly.
They criticized the lack of communication on railway platforms, stating that announcements about the major disruption would have helped them avoid boarding packed trains. As a result, many students and commuters found themselves stuck on trains for hours, unable to reach their destinations.
